So ive never talked to any fabs around my area, dont think they're are many if any at all locally might end up traveling but i want to get a roll cage installed into my celica.
For those who have roll cage experience, im trying to gauge how much it would cost to get the car caged, also if anyone here is caged would you please post pix of your cage and specifics on types of piping/welds/time/cost ect for me, it all helps! thanks NC!

are u goin custom or like autopower,cusco etc?
prices range from 300/400 and up.
if ur gonna do it urself
install is a b1tch ... remove the front seats aswell and puzzle that b1tch in there
are u goin full cage or roll just roll bar?
and i'd recommed to have a rep. shop tach weld it in instead of drilling holes through the body

Im doing a full cage, but I'm starting with the Autopower 4 point roll bar as a platform. It will all be welded and bolted to the frame. I am also having it custom made to take up as little space as possible while being safe and certified.

^ If you just want a bolt in cage go with one of those. If you want a weld in or are doing some racing, look at the rulebook to see what you can, cannot, and have to do.

Certainly is! I've seen it in the flesh (or the metal I suppose lol) and it's really something. Bit OTT for a daily but he's making a full-on race car, and to a very high standard too.

^Looks great, do you know what series he's competing in? The only other thing I might do (if it's allowed) is connect it to the front strut towers through the firewall.
