Default Competition Engineering 8-Point Roll Bar

Hey, I was wondering what your guys thoughts are on the Competition Engineering 8-Point Roll Bars. Its gonna be used for a 1987 Toyota Corolla street/drag car. Also how good are the quality and fitment of these kits.

I'd rather go with the A pillar bar one, those side pillars dont offer much protection, plus the A pillar bars prevent the front of the roof coming into your face in a roll over.

a pillar only if you have a 4/5 point harness, bucket seat, and your head doesn't reach the top panel bar, or side bar.. even if its close i would pad it.

I've got their 8 point kit for my 65 mustang. The hoop fits O.K. The rest is just rough cut to length, so you need to notch and cut all the other tubes.

on it;s way
having a pro build a cage for your car is always better than trying to get a generic one to fit your car
