I was wondering how much it would cost to have an 8 point weld-in cage welded? I was looking at the bolt-in but it would still have to be welded so why not do all welded? Does anyopne have an idea of how much it will cost? Thanks.

$1300 for an 8 point sounds freaking CHEAP!

I spent $1700 for a 6 point and NASCAR style door bars.

But then again, I wasn't installing it to just satisfy tech inspection. I wanted something that would help protect me.

So what if I went with a bolt-in cage? I know I would have to get the main hoops welded but that would only be like $200, correct? Then eventually when I have more money I could get it welded in, right?
