Love the jungle gym.. J/k

But really they did an amazing job, those welds are so damn nice, and the overall fit and finish is top notch.

Whats next after paint? Full N/a build possibly?

LOL, yeah it does look like a jungle gym for sure haha. I agree. It's a gotta see in person type of deal to see the time and thought that went into making it fit super snug! It's tighter than a virgin!

I'm not sure as fasr as paint yet, but it will be temporary for sure until I can get more money together to do what I really want. NA build will be later down the line because I just want to focus on getting back out on the track and focusing on improving my own skills again. I'm so excited!

But you're still small enough to easily slide in & out right?

LOL that's so random. What do you expect? It had no doors, hatch, or front windshield for a month and the debris is from welding and sanding in the shop. haha

Naw, but i'm sure it weighs about the same if not less than when it went in. Even with my car being pretty stripped going in, they shaved another 100 lbs prior to the cage install and that is without removing the heater core and AC setup which will be done later.
