Looks good... are they going to run anything around the side of the cab (right behind the door) down to the frame or anything?
Looks $$$ to have a shop do it all... but very well done...

going back later for boatsiding...yeah it costs but what im paying to get it done is a fraction of what my life is worth to me if i was to get in a fatal roll and something happen especially if i did my own cage i just dont trust my own work

well said, but after I paid $300 in labor to have my rear cage done. I bought a bender and notcher to do my interior cage and I really think it came out nice and I havn't looked back. Will be building a one seater buggy for someone here in a couple weeks
I wasn't knocking you for using a shop... I was just saying I bet it's $$$ to have a shop do a full blown cage...
I agree with ya' though... there are some things I'll leave to the professionals.
to each his own...i know me and if i was to do a cage id either give up in the middle or it would be half ass done and unsafe...i have tons for my truck and a bunch of other stuff but i waited cause i knew the cage was gonna be the most expensive piece for my truck so i got it done first plus im helping support a shop that one of our members on here works at so i have no problem with thatwell said, but after I paid $300 in labor to have my rear cage done.

i'm sure he'll like that, ha.
is that completely done or gonna brace from bumper to fender cage up front? I forsee that fender cage tube bending
I was thinking the same thing, looks good otherwise
Damn. That's some funny stuff right there. Make sure someone is ready with a camera when he sees it.

Wow - and I thought my Plum Purple paint was "unique".... but that... is UNIQUE! 
maybe something like this... ish. that vertical bar in front looks odd but would really help out.
