Personally i would say build it your self. That a way it will be exactly like you want and at a fraction of the cost. Check out my albums to see mine, Built it for 60 bucks minus paint

x2 on building it your self. I did mine for $100, but around $40 of it was paying someone to bend the square tubing. Which took a bit to find someone that did it. IDK why.
