Theres no point in me getting a full roll cage as my cars not stripped or really fast enough but where is the best place to get a showcage from at a reasonable price?

Dimma do them on the bay as bertie said also FK do some but apparently as Edd and SVM have already highlighted they're a little bit risky in a crash

i didnt mean that, i was referring to the use of aluminium in a "roll cage". granted a pole would still kill you, but i'd rather it was a pole that came from the outside of the car, as opposed to one which was inside to start with

I'd rather drive with a spike on my steering wheel than one of those things.
At least i'd know where the horrible injury was coming from.
