Copy, Will do.

We already finished testing on one “US Spec” 718(We use 718 T/S for the testing, since its body frame preparation is identical to US spec GT4RS) . There are two things we are trying to make it perfect:
1. a very strong Anchor structure fixed on car frame supporting our FIA 253 Standard Roll Cage.
2. a template making the cut of interior trim easier and accurate.

Our plan is to test on 3-4 more "US Spec" 718 to verify our installation process and get the roll cage installation manual ready before shipping it to end customers.

BTW, if any rennlist members are confident on your skill to install SR CF roll cage(without a triple verified manual, involving glue and trim cutting) and wants to be involved in the initial testing, please PM me. We are happy to offer our CF roll cage at huge discount for early testors.

Some photos for our "US Spec" GT4RS testing:

One SR CF Roll Cage GT4RS Customer returned this photo today. He is very happy with our Zero Rear vision blockage Design of SR CF Roll Cage. Now he wants SR 3inch Wing Riser since the original height rear wing is taking half of its rearview mirror.

Yes, Aleks sold a bunch of our products since we meet at RR7 last year. We are talking to him on the GT4RS CF roll cage fit testing at this moment.

I think it would be helpful for many GT4 owners if you provided kits that also accommodate those cars. Specifically, the wing risers and perhaps aero packages that bring those cars upto and above the OE GT4RS. There are plenty of GT4 owners who track their cars and could benefit from this.

Suggestions well received, we didn't forget 718/981 GT4 customers, after most SR GT4RS products in developing pipeline released into final production, we will allocate resource to develop performance kit for 718/981 GT4s. FYI, most of our GT4RS products can fit 718/981 GT4s directly or through minor adjustments. Compatible to 718/981 GT4 has been a guideline when we develop most GT4RS prodcuts.

A nice start for giving people an idea as to what matches up to make a stable upgrade package.

Any chance your carbon half cage can be installed on a 981 GT4 in conjunction with Gold Leaf's GT4 RS-style intake?

If GL's intake 100% follows the GT4RS intake route&dimensions as it asvertised, our rollcage should clear its intake system perfectly.

Since receiving too many messages about SR CF Roll Cage, I started a new dedicated thread about SR CF Roll Cage development status:

Hi Jia,

I would be interested in a full replacement front lip/splitter for the 718 GT4 with rub strips or pucks. I have the GT4RS front splitter but have been hesitant to install it because the GT4RS logo molded in the front.

I am also not a fan of adding a splitter on the stock splitter. I much prefer a full replacement of the stock splitter if that makes sense.
