Funny you mentioned that!

I just in the last 30 minutes finished this install since 11pm last night, by my self with normal breaks and bed around midnite. You can NO longer buy these new, these were made for and sold thru RKSport by CDC (classicdesignconcepts.com). Now the only way to find one is used so if you see one for sale grab it, their will never be any more made, I called both firms and confirmed unless a tidal wave of 4th gen vert f-body owners call them, which I doubt, they have not yet! I know a lot of people don't like these and are quick to yell Wolf Racecraft roll bar but I do not race my car although I do think they look cool I could not justify the entire package (price, lack of rear seat room after install, welding, etc) for one so I opted for this. It started to rain when I finished or I would have pulled the car out for a few better side shots.

Thanks and Negative, Windstop has to come out! Sorry, one or the other. But FWIW, I find the light bar deflects some of the wind too, no all but some, doesnt seem too bad, IMHO.

Looks good man. Please post an interior pic when you get time. I was gonna buy one of these but it was dark grey and my interior is tan. Looks like you have the same combo but from what I see looks reall good.
Thanks

I had the same thoughts before I got this one, in fact I wanted a tan one but in hindsight I am glad they stopped making them cause this color works out just fine with all the other darker stuff I have in mine. These are the only two shots I took just after I installed it, the way its made it looks a lot better with the top boots on too.
