Total bill, including rollbar already done, was $2500
hock:
However, doing a cage in these cars requires some fabrication and relocation of shit that eats up time (about 1/3 of the time spent on the front half of the cage was this misc crap) and included:
- Window net and mounting tabs
- Kill switch bracket and mounting
- Notching, bending, relocating brackets to fit dash bar
- Relocate ECU to floorboard
- Relocate Main fuse/control panel under driver side dash
- Tabs to mount dashboard (stock brackets removed for forward tubes)
- Gusseting
- Harness bar tabs
- Paint on forward tubes (hard to get painted when they're in the car)
- Mounting and tabs to bolt driver side glass in
- Interior Door Release "clearancing"
I'm sure there's a few other things I forgot, but you get the idea.
Also, Piper is 25 minutes away, and this shit was done in only 3 days
hock:
Having such a good cage builder so close thats done so quickly is really worth paying a little more for. I've seen some of his cages hold up to really nasty shit - I watched a car barrel roll through the T10 gravel trap at nearly 100mph and he was fine.
