From the looks of this cage it's custom right? Who did the welding? How much did it cost, and I can supply my own tubing how much do you think it would cost me?

so is your car considered tubed or do you jsut get a fat weight penalty. The reason I ask is becuase it looks like your stock firewall is gone
