RPM rollbar INSTALLED in Z06 Vert
5 Attachment(s)
This past Weekend, Rob and James, from RPM, flew from Oregon to San Diego to personally install a roll-bar in my 2015 Z06 Vert.
IT IS A BEAUTIFUL THING! :woohoo: I can't say enough positive things about these guys and this company. They are AWESOME! Check out the pix. If you need a roll-bar for your car, this is absolutely the place to go. |
Very nice. Is that a " bolt in " or a weld in? My other question has to do with driver/passenger fitment. Can you do a few pics of someone seated in the car? Or better yet, seated with helmets on?
Thanks. |
The rollbar is a bolt in to the frame of the car. Sure - I'll post pictures with my helmet on later today.

:thumbs: im digging the fire ext too,i wouldnt want my seat all the way back,im glad im short.

Looks like anyone whose over 5 11 will have cool lumps on their heads sitting in that and hit a nice bump. Pain pills included? :) maybe seeing it wrong
|
Is a roll bar required to track a convertible?
Thanks. |

Thanks. I used to track an F-Type convertible and never needed a roll bar to participate. |

Pics from farther back so we can get an impression how it affects the look of the car? |

I am 5' 10" and have plenty of clearance below the bar. Pics later.

Looks good. However, I was wondering whether this could be a hazard if you were driving around town without a helmet. It looks like one could potentially sustain a head injury during a relatively minor traffic accident given that the bar is so close to the seat.

The bar is actually above the seat. My head goes underneath the bar. The only think I am hitting is the back of the seat. And the seat can be adjusted lower as well to give more clearance.

good point. the motion to the right is fine. the motion to the left does come in contact with the bar depending on how you move your head. maybe put cushioning there to soften the blow. honestly didn't think about that. my main concern was a) making my car track legal, b) making sure I can see out the rearview mirror, c) find a reputable company who supports their product. RPM does it all :)

Does this also offer any side protection across the doors?
