Wow, that looks pretty good in there. Might not be the strongest out there, but it sure looks great.

Yay for jungle gym bars!
Those look big enough to do some bodily damage, and not big enough to actually accomplish anything.
Wrap every inch of those in roll bar padding or just take them out. I see some serious problems if anyone ever nails your door.
And thats not a poke, I'm being completely serious. Those Crashco bars are dangerous.

U beat me to it, IMO the cusco's are the worst bar out there.

#1 not safe in any respect, as they arent allowed in ANY form of racing
#2 totally make it annoying to get in and out of.

Ill let u go tho, because ur going for more of a show car than a race car.

But u really need to ditch that UGGGLY Momo shift ****.

it's a showcar, not a racecar. i'm sure he knows the potential danger that's there.

how is this different from people who remove their stock steering wheels for quick release steering wheels with no airbags?

i think it looks great man

Ain't going no where, I merely stated a fact, as did everyone else in the thread. There's no doubt it looks good, but they don't do what they're supposed too, and arn't safe.
