Default Wolfe bolt-in 6-point bar installed

Finally took the time to snap some pictures of the install. Ordered a bolt-in 6-point mild steel roll bar for our C5 so that we could begin testing with our nitrous as we try to dial-in the progressive controller. The fit and finish was VERY NICE and I basically installed the entire thing alone (other than the bolts in the cargo area) in about 8 hours. I'm very impressed with Wolfe and wouldn't hesitate to use them again. Also happy with how it all came out. Not too bad I think for a HS math teacher shade-tree weekend mechanic.

Thanks. I ordered those from MJ Quinn at Derby City Covers in Louisville, KY. His number is 888-268-3771. If I'm not mistaken NHRA requires 1/4" padding and those have 1/2" padding and the vinyl and padding are attached to one another plus the velcro is sewed on. He sells it by the foot and we were VERY IMPRESSED with the product. We just picked it up so that we could protect the powder coating on the door bars getting in and out. He runs a Camaro in Stock Eliminator and hangs out on the Class Racer forum.

The only place that the NHRA requires padding is where the helmet can come in contact with the roll bar/cage. And even then, it has to be the correct SFI spec padding.
