Hey um Im new to this site and just joinin to find a few pointers and maybe some help in which direction to look for parts for my car. I have a 1997 black mustang coupe. v6 with no engine mods, but the enterior is show quality. i have custom pearl while flames which fade to a light blue flake layered ontop of a black paint job with blue flakes throughout. I have rims and tires in for my car just not in the pictures and i have all of the body parts you see installed. yes it is my car and yes i designed it myself. I'm looking for some help in installing a roll cage and targa top

because id rather just spend the money now to put in a roll cage instead of spending 500 on a harness bar im just going to end up getting rid of. they look good in the car and i have sparco seats im getting soon. also i plan on putting in an engine and replacing everything after i buy a truck so i can get the car off of being a daily driver

What kind of racing are you going to do that requires either a roll cage or a5 point harness?

Oh yea, welcome to MF

It's nice to see a car that's different from the norm every now and then. Welcome to the forum, and like said earlier, ignore the haters.

My buddy has a harness bar, and they are the most pointless pieces of ****s I have ever seen. At least you have sense and realize it's a waste, and are going for the full rollcage. And for those that can't read, she's already said that she'll be putting in a motor in a little while. I think it's smart that she gets all the safety **** done and out of the way before she puts something in there that could possibly put her life at risk.

Arwing, everyone is entitled to an opinion, but you shouldn't have come across as such a dick about it. If you had simply stated that you dislike the car, but support that she's allowed to do whatever she wants to her car, then things would have been different. Weren't you raised to treat everyone with respect, especially girls?

I think the lambo door kit look good on those cars as long as the paint job isnt too rice . Her door kit fits her car well and looks good with the paint job also

thanx and thanx. yeah i lost a few friends in car accidents so im kinda big on the whole saftey thing now..

Well, then let me explain something to ya. A roll cage is very UNSAFE to have on the street. A roll cage is part of a system thats designed to be used with racing seats, a helmet, and a 5 point harness. All of which are a bad idea on the street. In the event of an accident on the street, hitting your head on the cage will likely knock you out and most likely kill you without a helmet. The 5 point harness is also a no-no on the street. If the car does roll, and crushes the roof, they don't allow you to slide down under the belt and out of the way of the roof. Again, hitting your head on the cage and probably killing you. So, unless this is a race purpose vehicle, and doesn't see street use, just go with the roll bar. And at the very least, wait until you need any of that stuff.

i did most of the work myself. i just couldnt paint it.
im to short to hit the bar, but if it is to expensive to get the rollcage i will just get a roll bar thanx

You missed the point. You're not to short to hit the roll bar. When you get in an accident, you bounce all over the place. If you want one, go for it...It's just not a good idea. Any decent cage shop isn't going to put one in on a street car. If they do, they're asking for a lawsuit.

thats pretty sick that you did most of the work. On a negative note, that wing... a little to rice lookin, sorry but...

I don't get this. If you guys saw this on the street, and you didn't know the person or anything, you would be laughing your asses off, or if someone posted a link to this in OT from like ebay, you guys would be crackin up laughing, I'm just a little confused... Is it because its a girl...? That's the only reason I can think of. And it's pretty cool that you did it all your self though, I guess it's just not my kinda thing.

Also, I don't even know why I'm posting this, If a mod doesn't agree with a comment, they will just delete the post...

No, you're missing the point. There are all kinds of members here, and everyone is welcome. I don't see the point in bashing someones car. You'd have a fit if someone came in and bashed your car. So why do it to someone else?

Regardless of us thinking it's rice, we're all mature enough to keep the comments to ourselves. Leave it alone now.

Welcome aboard! I'm pretty new on these boards too.

Personally, I think the doors are pretty cool.

If they're good enough for a Lamborghini... Nobody ever told a Countach owner, "those look so rice!" They'd think you were a retard (no offense to anyone - Old School)

I will have to look for a set for the 2006 model. We have wickedly narrow parking spots at work and the pony has LOOONG doors.

Might make parking in the garage tough, I'll have to measure the clearance upward.

I can always appreciate modifications to someone's car... as long as it's a Mustang!
