few more pics. started paintin the calipers today to match the interior/roll bar. still got alot to do tho. I chose Imperial Orange off of a 350z for the bar/calipers. I dont think i could have matched the interior color any more perfect

and yes i know there is wheel gap in front, i just lowered it off the jack and the suspension has not settled

thanks guys.

the car IS super low as is. like i said, i had JUST lowered if off of the jack, so the suspension has yet to settle. I will not go any lower because i already have issues with scraping as is. the front sits less than 3" off of the ground believe it or not

We got the cage all welded up and it fits perfect. (sorry for the crappy cell pics)

my girlfriend and I are going to be painting it this morning/afternoon, and it should be back in the car within a few days

after seeing a few others with cage's on the b5 body, most that i've seen leave the side bolsters out, exposing wires and IMO, looking very incomplete...I hate leaving things "unfinished" looking, so I made a trip to the hardware store and this is what i came up with. i think it looks MUCH more complete this way.

looks real good and I like what you did with the bolsters! definitely looks better than removing them completely. is the cage going to be orange?

still think you should get a black carpet
