rollcage retailer/installer in socal?
I'm thinking of putting a 4 point cage in my car in the name of safety. Can anyone recommend a retailer in socal that sells such a kit and also suggest an experienced installer. Thanks in advance.

I just dropped my car off at Autopower (San Diego) today. They should have the prototype done by the end of this week, and production cages before Dec. 11 hopefully. www.autopowerindustries.com

My friend's fabrication shop did my rollcage in Gardena. He doesn't do production kits...each one is done custom to customer specs. You might want to give him a call...his name is Mike. His contact info can be found at www.bulletfab.com.

Only thing I don't like about the one in the photos is the angle of the roll hoop, which takes away A LOT of leg room. Mine is angled back a tad. But as mentioned, most welders will customize each bar per the specification provided by the customer.

Did Piper make your kit custom or is it a kit? What did they charge you. Thanks!

I'm planning on getting the kirk racing roll bar. Not sure if im gonna go with the 4-point bar or 6 point cage yet. You can get them as either prenotched weld-in or bolt in. I think they told me it was 400 for the 4point and 600 for the 6 point if i remember correctly. BTW it is all DOM tubing.

Word of warning on the Kirk. Be prepared to majorly reinforce the front mounting points. They are paper thin and I was practicly able to push the drill through without even turning it on!! Ultimatel we reinforced the entire area, but it was a *****. I would love to see what they did for the forward mounting points on that Bullit setup.
