Finished up my roll cage :)
 

finished up the welding on my cage last night, didn't turn out to bad for being the first thing I have ever bent and about the first thing I have ever tig welded.
I spray bombed it grey to help keep it from rusting, but it looks pretty decent that color so it might just stay.

What was used to do the bends. Look nice. I'm going to make my own this winter, just need something to bend with.

got any pics of the plates where the tubes connect to the floor?

I almost thought that was a S&W kit after seeing those two bars that angle down from the harness bar to the floor like S&W does with there kits. Nice ---- though. How much did it run you? What did you build it to be approved for?

I bent the cage up myself from 4130, it should be nhra legal.
I used a Pro-tools model 105 bender to make the bends. This thing works great.

As for the floor attachments, the front downbars and front door bars are hooked to 6*6 plates as is the rear down bars.
The main hoop and kicker bars are mounted to 2*2 box tubing that connect the subframes together. Here is an in progress picture of them.
