Looking good ATL. Now you mind as well take out all of the rear seat belts, nut & bolts and get a rear seat delete kit to off set the 80lbs you just added. Don't think you'll be needing that stuff now.

Im actually gonna look into that. The guy I bought this from is gonna give me his old panels so i can use them to measure and cut mine clean. May end up cutting the bar so i can have a clean cut a circle in the panel then welding it back together under the panel so you cant see it. Idk how they did this

That kit comes with a piece of pvc piping. Before the rearward bars get welded to the main hoop you slide the pvc pipe on the main hoop and mark where it touches the body panel. Then you cut the hole. When it's already welded you are kinda screwed.

i didnt buy it new, but i can cut it close to the plate, feed it through then weld it back in place. How hard you think that'll be. Or should i take in to an interior place and let them cut up the panel and fit it back on there. They might have plastic filling or something. I just want it to look clean

If you are going to cut the roll bar, you will want to make it slip fit. Trying to weld 2 pieces of metal together that are the same size will be difficult and weak. I would get a piece of the same thickness steel tubing that will slip fit over the original pipe. Easier to weld and alot stronger. Just a thought.

I would try to get the guys body panels and try to get the location of the holes off of his first. I would only cut the roll-bar as a last resort.

Wow you're still running quad shocks!?? Take them things off man. Roll-bar looks good. Car is taking on a whole new attitude with the rims and the roll-bar.
