I sent you a text recently about a roll bar for my car, not sure your thoughts on it, but just asking around right now.Track Car Build:http://www.r3vlimited.com/board/showthread.php?t=365614

Unfortunately, I got a little over zealous with the foam and didnt fully understand its properties. I did the initial shot into the quarter panel and the foam expanded nicely. I thought the foam would "roll" and expand into areas not covered during expansion. That wasnt the case and instead it bonded to the initial space and just expanded pushing the fiberglass out and "bowing" it. The quarter panel was bowed just slightly, but with all the time I have invested, i knew it would bug me so I cut out the portion, sanded down the foam, and bonded the panel back into place so I can glass over it.Track Car Build:http://www.r3vlimited.com/board/showthread.php?t=365614
