Hasn't arrived yet, should be here this week. I have one day of work (this saturday) to finish up on the car before I give it to the chassis guy. I'm going to call him today and arrange when I can drop the car off. Once it's back I'll post some pic!

Just out of curiosity, What is the install going to cost.
I had a guy here that told me $1700, and that was with me buying the cage.
One guy not from here told me he would build and install it for $800.

The cage cost just under $1000. The guy doing the welding (Sparks racing) said around $500, but he's doing a bunch of other stuff also, welding up the torgue boxes, closing up the firewall holes, closing up the huge hole in the transmission tunnel (thanks to the previous owner), welding up the body seams (unibody car) and even repairing a rot spot on the rear wheel well

Went done to Sparks on Saturday, they were just beginning work on the cage. Told me to come by on Sunday that it would be tacked in place and I could see how it all looks, Got there Sunday and they were 90% done!!

Looks great, welds are perfect!!!!

They said everything should be done by next weekend !!
