Default 96 Civic EJ8 Roll Cage By Fab Candy

I just thought I would share some pics of my new roll cage. The car is getting delivered to me this weekend. A good friend hooked it up for a very good price.

The fitment and layout looks great, but are the door bars easy to climb over? they look tall, very nice how they hoop out to give a little more elbow room though

Yeah the door bars are pretty high but can't say how easy they are to get in and out of. I haven't seen the car since I dropped it off a month ago. He lives in Denver and I am a few hours from him and been busy with work. Needless to say, I am VERY excited to see it this weekend! Here is a better pic of the door bars. It seems to give a decent amount of space to climb over. I like the way the door bars bend out too. He is learning what to change the more cages he builds. A friends Still (his first cage) didn't have bends and the driver hits his elbow sometimes so this should help.

Lol what?

Anyway, saw the cage in person for the first time and pictures don't do it justice! Clearances are tight and getting in and out is pretty easy compared to some cars I have been in. Here are a few better pics in good lighting.

Thanks and its Dom .120 tubing. As far as dimple dieing the plates, my builder is just getting started and doesn't have all his tools yet but neither way, I am very satisfied.
