RSS makes a custom front cage. I am sure you can ask for reinforced side cross bars.

Rest of World rear bumper beam (approx. $500) is 8 lbs. lighter than U.S. version and fits fine under U.S. bumper with bumperettes.

I have early production RS which has the CS roll bar plates already under the carpet from the factory. Install is a couple of hours to bolt in or out without modifying/altering the tub.
