looks good to me. i think it would be a lot stronger and complete looking if you brought the cage up along the A pillar from the top of the fenders and ran it along the roof line...but thats just me its not like i've ever build one! lol

I like the bonner bar frt bumper. Also are you intergrating an interior cage with it? If not now, I think it would be killer later on.

I think if you combine the 2nd and 3rd one it would be awesome + super strong.

I say screw the fenders and make a hybrid cage to protect against a roll over.

I agree but apparently he can't afford to do that.
