Not to start a war Phat T/A but if you are going to compare prices on different manufacturers parts make sure you compare apples to apples.
My rollbar for $750.00 installed is made of chromemoly NOT mild steel. Chromemoly is 1 lbs per ft, whereas mild steel is 2.9 lbs. per foot. Chromemoly is more expensive material PLUS the weld procedure is different and more time consuming. Jegs has a nice bar FOR the price but it is mild steel. Theirs also fits 3rd gen and 4th gen. The interior is different in these cars so how could the fitment be right? My bar along with Wolfe's are made for 4th gens only.

I agree the name on the product should not cause the price to be higher BUT remember you get what you pay for usually.

I am sure you offer a top notch product madman...just saying that IMO it is not really necessary to spend that much for it unless it is for a "hardcore" racer....for the 95% of street guys out there it might be smarter to go with a kit from Jegs for example and "make it work" to save alot of money...but to each his own....again no flame just an opinion

ps. The guy starting the thread is a close friend of mine and I know what he is after, and in his case going with an 800 dollar roll cage is a waste of money....trust me, if I ever saw somebody with a setup "hardcore" enough to merit that sort of expenditure you or Wolfe would be two of the places I would referr them to

That looks really good. I am going to do a little bit of thinking before I go and do anything, but I will definately keep madman in mind. I just need to decide what I want out of this car so that I can get something done just for that, and not wish that I did something else later. Thanks again guys.
