Nice paint (and integrated strut bar!).

Do you really plan to rally(e) it?

I ran my firewall bar the same way, very nice. The rest of the cage is interesting. Why have you retained seemingly unecessary bits and pieces like the charcoal canister and extra wiring?

I´m thinking to cut the extra wiring at the end of the wiring loom. I have to add wires to the lamp pods at the front and some internal switches, so I will simplify the wiring later.
Regarding to the canister I´m not sure, maybe you are right and as well I have to add a breather crank tank due to the FIA rules.

Thanks for the advice

You can eliminate the entire line back to the tank. Just vent to atmosphere with a small filter.

ditto the front strut support, that is nice. Did you seam weld anything?

Thank you for the photo post. It appears that you ran a bar from the a pillar to the shock tower, is this true? I love white race cars, so easy to see where everything goes. Each photo post will be relished!

I fit the "X" on four brackets with uniball and yes the bar ran across the interior of the car (you can see this on the second picture attached)
