I could Peter but as I am considering additional safety features I think I need a continuous tube. it was a gamble that I could “re-purpose” the vitesse bar. There are people out there that will bend to order. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Kit-Car-Parts-Roll-Bar-Light-Bars-Bumpers-Steps-Wing-Brackets-Tube-Bending-/185084034493?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m2548.l6249&mkrid=710-127635-2958-0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
