Wolfe Race Craft offers really nice bolt-in and weld-in roll bars for the C5 and Z05.

I have the 6-point bolt-in roll bar with removable door bars and am very happy with the quality and fit.

What are you going to use the car for??? Some of the comercially avalibe roll bars are not legal or even safe for road racing or track days.
We have some one here in NC who purchased a very popular roll bar for his vert. He had to do extenisve modifications to the roll bar so it would pass the SCCA Solo I rules and was allowed to run track days.
Ask the manufacture if their systems will pass the SCCA Solo I tests??
If not pass on it.
The DE schools we are running require the SCCA Solo I roll bar or better for verts.
Did not want to rain on your parade, but dont be fooled either.

That's exactly the info I'm looking for. I don't really like the look of a rollbar, but I'm starting to do more and more autocrossing and I'm having to turn down track days.

Hey I just ordered a Wolf 5point, you can come by and check mine out anytime. But I do not think the Wolf is acceptable for SCCA Solo I. You have to have a diagonal crossbrace in the main hoop. Also I know a guy in Smyrna who can build you a custom bar. He builds SCCA bars all the time.

Give a shout when you get yours in. I definitely want to see to it.
