Recomdended Roll Bar Manufactures

Hi Guys,

I am looking for a roll bar to be manufactured / bought etc as I rebuild.
The car wont be raced or events etc, just a dry day runner on the roads.
Would like a simple, none intrusize and semi discrete one.
Anyone you recomend to supply?


Cheers!

I had a welded on single hoop roll bar on my MK Indy. I think it would have worked in a sideways roll, but failed with any front/rear movement. My preference would be a welded in roll cage with rear braces to the chassis and side impact protection as well. On an existing car this would be hard work and require a partial strip and re-paint to do though. I've not used anyone myself so can't recommend, but I've heard good things of Pro Comp WRT roll cages - might be worth asking them.
