Progress looks good- and not meaning to sound negative- but will that cage get through any scrutineering? Looks a bit iffy to me...?!

that cage looks like a TT lyle one, from the looks of thing you may have the door bars the wrong way round,
i mean passenger on drivers & visa versa, if its a tt lyle there will be a flat bit in the bar which will miss the door frame,
also you dash bar looks to be upside down.

but yeah good progress man.

I'm not stage rallying it's just local events, you don't need a cage or change anything to do it. I had the cage there so I thought may aswell put it in
Yeah I know about the door bars cheers, it's not bolted in yet and couldn't get them to fit! The front bar across the front won't go the other way unless when I bolt it in I will have more room

a poor quality cage can be more dangerous that having a decent one.

say you crash the car and that cage isnt up to teh job you could end up with one of those bars rapped round your head :/

other than thats it looks good

Its looking good! I think it’s coming along quite well actually!

The color scheme is different, Red and Lime.. but it’s unique and you will get noticed for that!

Keep it up! I’ll be following it :D
