You guys have to learn to jump on deal right away, instead of chit-chatting on Rennlist!

My experiences with parts heaven have been great. Its a great place if you're looking for some of those difficult small parts since most are free anyway. I'll have to find a excuse to make the trip to their showroom sometime.

I dunno, I like E.A.S.Y. probably because I already know everyone there and its closer to my house, but parts-heaven is loads of fun. I'll have to take up that advice and go there to find a lower front valence.

I'm glad someone on the list got it. I was quite surprised when I saw that they were only asking $250 for it. Have you figured out exactly which bar it is Kitkit?

And I assume you're going to come on the group run this weekend to show it off, right?

There was one on craigslist? I bought a new one, which is still in need of final payment and shipping.

It looks exactly like a redline rollbar, I haven't check if there's a serial # that proves it's a redline rollbar but it looks exactly just like any redline rollbar should be.I'll try to post some pics of the rollbar later tonight.

Unfortunately I can't make it this weekend.

Since John made a total of 8 this year, all 8 are limited editions. I was just lucky enough to be the eight person to confrim with John that I wanted one.

And, the man himself installed it in my car. It was very easy.... for him.

I was really looking for one just like that. But i cant seem to find one that bolts into the lower seat belts as well as the rear hatch cover. Found some on this website but not quite the same. http://www.ioportracing.com/index.html

No affiliation.

Here is the highly-recomended redline rollbar that everyone likes. You unfortunatly just missed out on a production run (John only makes a batch when there is enough interest).
