standerd 10pt is all you need. just make sure to put rocker/sill bar whatever its called in first. it has to go from rocker to rocker attached to 6x6 plates. you can either tie hoop to sill bar or make plates on floor to attach main hoop. dont no what threads have pics of some of nrg's or dp's cages in them but they have really good pics on fb of how there cages are tied in. chute mount is very easy. i bought a kit from summit they have a chute mount and chute hanger kit for like 100$

as close to the center of gravity as you can get it. with a da i would think as far up on the bumper as you could.

I'm not sure where Lexington is. But East Coast Performance can do it for you. I think blueridge motorsports is near concord or something and they have a few cars they race. so they may be closer than Jacksonville.
