i think it's too new for anyone to have it yet but i too have seen it and thought it looked great. the only thing i wasn't sure of was how it would work with a hard top or if it would work.

Wow, to call that thing wild would be an understatement. Thanks for the link.

I think both OR Fab and Rockhard ( What I have as well) offers very simple great looking and functional sports cage.

The Overkilled Eng ones are really got their work cut out for them. Perhaps its an actual frame welded/mounted roll cage?

That looks pretty gnarly. That rear horizontal bar really puts a hurt on loading anything in the rear however. I know it's a real cage, just I have to keep my daily driver uses in mind as well. Hmm..

"OverKill" Well they got the name right That is insane. I would love to see what it looks like below the dash and how they tie in up front.
