I think Gary is hoping that when we remove the masking tape that the vinyl will get 'accidentally' pulled off, so we can spend more money on a fresh sticker job!!

Thats going to look awesome when done.

You going to have the bars powder coated before they finally fitted? If so what colour is the cage bars going to be? white would look good in a black car

The A pillar bar looks like a true motherf***** for getting in and out as its not shaped at the top to give more clearance. With high sided bucket seats I think videos of first attempts at getting in and out by all APT staff should be posted lol does look nice and strong though.

Guess its a weight watchers diet down APT now to fit in there
