JrTaylor9: I don’t want to cut carpet so I will get the FVD carpet shelf precut. As to cutting any other carpet do you have to? What options are there?

A roll bar for a street car is unnecessary BUT some feel it finishes off and completes the car based on its intended purpose even if you don’t it for use the track.

For me, yeah it’s a poser thing (guilty lol) but it’s part of the spirit of the car. Meshes naturally with its DNA. Looks cool too.

Im never going to track the RS) It’s too beautiful, it’s too expensive (in my world), it would crush value and it would crush me emotionally. 😭

I got my track rats. We’ve been into tire walls before. If you run on track as a hobby and your “trying” it’s not a matter of if..it’s a matter of when” Upsetting enough with a dedicated track horse and wouldn’t want that for the RS. My son just hit 2:00 at Watkins Glen in October in the Boss 302. 😎

Me, lol? thats another story. Not quite there. 😕

Precut or not isn't that big of a deal. You just need to get an extra shelf/carpet and keep your original (being precut doesn't matter much and I'd check the pre-cut works with whatever bar u choose). And get a bar that will connect to seat belt anchors instead floor behind seats.
