i’m down with the cage… if its a street truck though i would leave the interior as is and make the cage look factory. either just paint to match the exterior/interior or cover it in leather. most of the street trucks at carlisle with cages make them look just like a factory option ---

parish’s seems like a very simple roll bar cage. there isnt any front pieces around the dash like alot of truck cages i seen. would that be enough of a cage for 11.5 and under? i guess so if he runs near 9’s. if so then go for it. its a very clean setup. with the cover and tinted class, it will look very sweet ---
