Hey guys, don't really know where to post this but anyway....

My girlfriends dad has set up his own business in producing roll cages and other things that requires bending tubes etc. Hes producing cages for the impreza rally cars, aston martin racing cars and others which i cant think off the top my head.

To the point how many people who want a cage would possibly interested depending on prices of course if i speak to him about it? He asked me to see if theres any intrest in it from sax-p.

would they be rated to the safety standard that say OMP cages are rated to?

Yep i would be really interested and probably actually buy one as long as it did not require welding to install. Dont mind if i have to take seats out to install it. Thanks
