I wonder if that cage will fit under a hard top?

I ended buying the ap2 replica lip from slipstreamauto b4 I went to homecoming 2. It was polyurethane, black, & ready to paint. I had to send an email or 2 to inquire about shipping (he was a little slow getting it out) but not too bad overall, he replied quickly & got the ball rolling. I took it to get painted and my painter noticed some body filler was used on the inside to repair sum sort of damage (painter asked if it was used). I would never have known and didn't care too much since I needed to paint it anyways and it was cheap and from eBay....It came in one piece, not folded, with all hardware but no tape. I have it mounted w/o tape just some screws on the sides and underneath. It fits 7.5/10 sides are stretched pretty good to fit screwholes and bottom had a wavy result but that can be fixed with a heat gun. I will get some pics up whenever I can figure out how to on this Droid incredible....

Edit: I forgot to mention I managed to hit a piece of tire otw to california and bc there was no tape, the top of the lip got lodged under the bottom of the bumper, no biggie no damage. I just temporarily used a cpl zipties to keep it snug while driving cross-country. Actually worked out pretty nicely!

Here is a link to the seller: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/00-09-HONDA...sQ5fAccessories

As for the install, it was pretty straight forward. It took me about 4 hours. There is a DIY install guide for the Cusco 5 point roll cage that I used. It's a tight squeeze trying to drill holes for the rear bars, but it was pretty much step by step the same. (I didnt take out the center console as in the DIY though) https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.php?showt...&#entry10283583

As far as fitment goes, it clears the soft top easily. I probably have another inch or so to spare.

Roll cage does look nice just would suck not being able to recline seats anymore. I usually have the seat close to full back so would not be comfortable I don't think.

You can always paint it but I agree that losing space in an already small cabin wouldn't be ideal.

do you think it'll hold up in an impact?

Those types of "roll bars" aren't really designed to take a hard impact and hold up perfectly. They are more of a looks piece than anything.

Wouldn't want one of those in the car with me if I were in an accident... With certain mods it might be safer to just avoid them.
