IMHO, I think it looks lame. It doesn't provide any real protection in the event of a collision. At least the original hoop design reflected the shape of the car, this is just a bar between the overriders. Dick Smith's #198 had strange bumpers that were required because at the time the California Highway Patrol wouldn't allow quickjacks on the street. But then again, Dick's CSX is an iconic car in the world of Cobras. BTW, from an aesthetics point of view I don't like them either. LOL
