scotty_82 Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 JDM arches try the for sale section on retro rides forum , there is a bloke selling sets on there with good feedback from everyone.Show cages mmmmmmmmmmmmm, how about i wrap some toilet rolls in tin foil and put the in your car, to add to the danger lets fill them with HIV ridden needles so when you crash you will get needles flying about everywhere.Show cages are dangerous in a decent impact.

heartagram Posted November 3, 2011 Report Share Posted November 3, 2011 Just get some drain pipe. It'll be fine. Plastic shards are less painful than being hit in the head with a metal bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treblet Posted November 3, 2011 Report Share Posted November 3, 2011 If you want a roll cage buy a proper roll cage not some cheaply made piece of crap with shiny pipe which will probably kill you in an accident! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkStryder360 Posted November 4, 2011 Report Share Posted November 4, 2011 Show Cages.... Wow.Just get a roll cage, stop being a bumder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChristopherReeve Posted November 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2011 has anyone actually fitted plastic arches on a lupo!?yes yes i know the stigma show cages get but i just want one. yes i have seen what they do in accidents and the damage they cause. Either way i dont mean to lower the tone or anything but we're all going to die ect. Its my own personal opinion so can we stick to the question and not about health and safety. so does anyone know where to but a show cage? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deadmetal Posted November 5, 2011 Report Share Posted November 5, 2011 Show cages are the biggest waste of time ever.Why spend money and time fitting something that will just add wieght to the car and be dangerous in an accident?Proper roll cages arent just used for saftey, they can also add huge amounts of chassis rigidity.

Deadmetal Posted November 5, 2011 Report Share Posted November 5, 2011 Doesnt anyone know how to answer a question. i want to know where to get one from not a opinion.So after everyone saying that they're a waste of time, you still want one?It's hard to buy show cages off the self as nobody buys them, most people arnt that stupid.

JoeA Posted November 5, 2011 Report Share Posted November 5, 2011 make one if you want one that bad, seeing as it serves no real purpose you wouldn't have to worry about structure, angles rigidity etc. You could use loo roll tubing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
