I don't see a link to send you a PM. Call Watson Racing and ask for Frank. Tell him you want one of the lightweight 4pt roll cages in the group buy.

Will do. Thanks.

I should have my cages on the 21st. I will report overall with photos and insights.

Are those ours??

Oh the joy!

Awesome job getting this going. If I didn't have the CMS bar still sitting in my garage I'd be on this.

Id figure out a way to ditch the CMS. This is a Watson 4 pt that weighed in at 42#! A lithium battery swap and its just about a trade off.

I had the pleasure of meeting Frank today. He dropped my cages at the cargo facility where I work and soon they will be in sunny Florida. I'll pick them up when my trip is over and may even get around to bolting one of them into HR361. I'm sort of in a dilemma, I just got word my 500 will be built this cycle. I'll believe it when I see it though.

Can I still get into this group buy?

I assume the roll bars are for the 350 and 500? Also, If I can still get into the group buy, how do I get it in a red color?

Call him. I forwarded to you his number. Early on, I recall you could get whatever color you wanted, but at an upcharge. The remaining cages (if there are any left), are probably painted in the default black color. They would have to refinish the ones they have. They work closely with a shop nearby.

Thank you

Today, I picked up my lightweight roll cages from my shipping department at the airport. I ordered one in red and one in black. Red is an exact match to race red. The black is a satin black.

The red one will eventually make it's way into my GT350R base (JR357) and the black one will be installed in my GT500 CFTP.

Despite the abuse the boxes took in shipping, the cages and the box's contents were perfect.

Below find the photos after opening the boxes and inspecting the cages.

I reached out and got my tracking number. Mine will arrive tomorrow. I'll post up some pictures if someone else hasn't done the same by then.

Edit: For some reason the pictures didn't load when I opened the thread. Thanks for uploading those!

I installed my red cage today!

Looks like a professional job, amigo..well done! May I ask how long it took?

And thanks for the images, I'll put 'em in my gallery unless you prefer I do not.
