im not a fan of cobalt-addiction. they overcharge for everything.
dont worry about a roll cage tho just stiffen up the front of the car, and get a ttr rear sway.
this is wat im doing/done for auto-x: ttr rear sway, ark front strut, sportlines, koni struts, camber plates, control arm bushings, hawk hps pads, rotors, and better tires

They're not actually made by Cobalt-Addiction. Those are Auto Power roll bars/cages. And overpaying for a quality roll bars/cages is like saying "man, the seatbelts inflated the price of this car too much". If your car is used in such a manor that a roll cage is actually needed, never skimp on the cage. It could be the thing that stands between you going home to see your kids, or you going to go visit the worms.

That being said, Auto Power cages are as nice as they come for pre-fabbed cages. I came very close to buying one for my RX-7 when I had it. Unfortunately, I was stupid and I sold that car before the cage ever made it into the car.

I didn't use the cobalt addiction bar - it wasn't what I could consider safe for 100mph+ driving...
