CobraEd, the way the rollbar was designed and the material used was the reason for the cosmetic statement. I think Gary Rutherford was covering his butt for liability as well. The roll bar has 2 bends at the base which would allow the roll bar to tip forward in a roll over. The way to fix it is to add a 4th leg forward. I am working on a new design that has straight uprights. I'm not sure when I'll have it done though. Welding the old roll bar in wouldn't provide any more protection at this point.
