FEELER: Gen6 Convertible Sport Bar
 

I've been communicating with Classic Design Concepts to see if they had plans on the Sport Bar For Convertibles. They've had a convertible in for mock up but hasn't seen too much interest. We'd like to see if any would be interested in possibly a group buy to have some created. Check out the pictures of the Gen5 Sport Bars.

Count me OUT.

I too have been emailing several times with Mike.
Very interested in seeing the final product.
I actually had one on my Gen 5 V6 2013.

I'm leaning towards trading for a drop top, and I'd be interested in seeing what the final product looks like.

Me too. Had a bar like that in my last vert, and I'm glad to being back to fully open.

I think they'd look really good on the Gen6 with the tonneau covering the tops now.

Ditto that........:eyebulge:

Same here

For me it somewhat detracts from the clean lines when the top is down. If it had a mesh insert or something to help with wind buffeting it might at least serve a function.

The purpose is that if the car rolls over, your head is protected lol but a removable mesh Insert would be cool too. That's a great idea!

I thought I wanted one of these (for cosmetic reasons, rollover is not in my risk profile) before I got my car. Now that I have it I'm along the lines of what Drysideshooter said regarding clean lines and doubt I would ever get one.

What if they made one to really compliment the body lines instead of the typical?

I hadn't realized it was actually a structural element and thought it was purely cosmetic.

What are the ramifications of selling it as having a safety benefit? Any practical or potential legal hassles with doing that? Is the car reinforced enough it that area to actually be able to provide a benefit?

Just based purely on the aesthetic of it, I still wouldn't be interested though.

If it made me compliant with NHRA/IHRA rules, I'd consider it.
