Build is looking good.

What did you use for the CF overlay? Vinyl or a CF layer?

I like it.

Figure out what you’re doing for the valentine? I’ll actually need to figure out a non windshield setup for my Miata and I was thinking of using the cage as well.

I’m going to have my buddy machine a sandwhich plate for the v1 between the top and the bottom. Attach those two plates with tamperproof hadware so no one can easily take it apart and grab my v1. And have a bracket off that sandwhich plate to attach to the roll bar on the rear of the car (main hoop). Then i’ll use my remote display up front for the visuals

Almost like a V1 sandwitch out of the plates? Possibly using safety Torx’s?

I have a double diagonal w/ a harness bar, so a harness bar might be the best bet for me.

I’m subscribed now to see how you make out with it.

So are you going to put something better on or is this just going to be a show car?
