Default Sport Bar

Hey,

I recently purchased a 2008 Convertible, and I am customizing it to my taste. I am attempteing locate a manufacturer or custom shop that makes a "Sport Bar," not a roll bar for the car. I have seen chrome hoops, and wind screens (the one made by GM itself), but no sport bars. I have seen the new Camaro and Mustang with it, made by Classic Carriages I believe the name was, but no one seems to make a one-piece sport bar.

The issue with this model seems to be the lack of space behind the seats. But if hoops or the GM wind screen fit and bolt in behind there, then I'm sure that a flat, aluminum bar can be made to fit as well.

Does anyone have an idea of who, what, or where I might be able to find one? Thanks.
