Very nice car! Those black wheels look awesome with the yellow exterior! What all have you done in mods? Looks like the full Techart body kit, full carbon interior, yellow stiching, very sweet!

I don't even notice that the cage is fitted now, it is very tight to the roof. The only thing that notices is that access to the main light switch is not as easy as stock, but it's no problem.
As for access, obviously it fills the rear up pretty well with the crossbars, but in the front all you have to do when entering and exiting is bring your legs in a little further to avoid kicking the vertical bar. (I am 6ft tall and 230lbs, 1.85m and 105kg in metric)

Dear BuddyG:
Thanx for the compliment^____^
yes I'm looking forward to upgrade my motor as well. Saving some money to mod first though, I'm still doing some research, and hopefully will have the engine upgraded sometime at the beginning of next year. I'm aiming somewhere around 640HP. Might go with powerchip or protomotive, or even evoms's new stage 4 GT.
Dear GuyR:
Does the cage mount its front to the floor? B/c I can't really tell by looking at the pictures.
And how do you like the cage so far? is it significantly better than the factory rollcage? (the half one)...

The front bar of the cage is bolted to the floor (I think), you can see it in the last picture, to the left of the gas pedal.
My cage if the full factory rollcage. The Clubsport cars come fitted with the rear-half rollcage and have the front cage provided to bolt-in if desired.
Full cage can be seen here:
