Default Roll Cage

Hey im wondering who on the site as a Cage in they're DD(Daily Driver)?

You think having a cage would get some unwanted attenion?

Im thinking about getting a Cage for my EM1 but im not really sire right now. I mean because sometime i haul people around. Its no more then 4 people but i knoe if you put a cage in you might lose actcess to the back seat.

Unless your autocrossing or somethin I say wait till you need it. Yes it does draw attention.

I agree totally... Perhaps you could tint your windows, hehe? You can't see Will's cage in his Rex for that reason... It's just extra weight and looks until you really need it... As for being able to haul people... If you do a standard even 6 point cage it's already going to be a pain unless you modify the rear drop bars (but that kind of looks ugly)... Lane's car is this way... Here's a few pics I'm sure you've seen...

Brian's rear drop bars as just about everyone elses come straight back, his is also an 8 point cage


Lane's are tucked up high in the rear and then come down at a steep angle, this allows him to run his rear seats... (sorry it's kind of hard to see through the back window)

That black civic looks sweet and the somewhat hidden cage is pretty cool.

I dont regret getting my cage done and it was a daily driver last year. They do draw attention for sure which kinda sucks. People also give you **** if your car doesnt run 11's
