It might be answered before, but is the half cage design like GMG's RSR a good one in terms of DE safety? I've been looking for a cage but really don't want to lost much of the rear space since I drive to track, sometimes a good 5hrs drive to VIR with a weekend worth of craps (clothes, ez up, etc.). Therefore, I would like to have the rear space for hauling stuffs on a longer/weekend trip.

Installed the Competition Motorsports bar, fit and finish is great. Somebody previously mentioned a slight visibility concern with the top bar in the centre. There is now a slight bend there. No visibility issues.

I have a buddy with the BBI cage. Looks great. But it does make noise when car goes over some bumps. Like a metallic pinging or creaking sound. Best guess is it's the two halves of the cage moving slightly. Was wondering if anybody else has experienced this? And if there's some way to combat it, like maybe a rubber gasket or some type of caulk applied to the the mating surface of the front/back halves of the cage?

The BBI cage in my 991.1 GT3 makes the metallic pinging noise as well. I tried tightening the bolts - it made more noise. I tried spraying some WD40 in the joints - more noise. Loosened and removed the 4 bolts - noise went away but now the bar moves and large bumps will make a clunking noise. Contacted BBI and first response I got they asked where I bought the BBI cage - not helpful so far. Definitely diagnosed it to the bar and not a suspension noise. Also it's on the driver's side and not so much on the passenger side joint.

I brought the car back to the shop who did the install and their best guess is that maybe there's something inside the cage rattling around, like a piece of welding material that broke off. I contacted BBi about possibly warranty-ing the cage and they want me to bring the car back to the shop again. Gonna cost me $$$$ to have the shop tear the interior of the car apart again. But the noise is driving me crazy. Every few seconds there's a *ping* *ping-ping* sound.

I've been trying to ignore the pinging noise with the BBI bar but now I've got some time to chase it down. Hopefully it can be fixed. Got a second email from BBI asking what noise it's making. They acknowledged that they've received "very isolated incidents" of their bars with noise issues. Will wait to see if they can offer any advice.
Mine is every few seconds. I would guess the bar moves at the joints right behind the seats to make the pinging noise.

I have the GMG RSR. Have heard a sound from it maybe 3 times in 6 months.
