MARKET RESEARCH: S14 Roll Bars and Cages

Just doing a little market research.
I have an opporutunity to team up with a local fabricator to help the S14 community in creating a 4-point roll bar with removeable cross bar and harness bar.
These will be SCCA auto-X approved.
No pricing will be mentioned on this board.
A 6 point cage can be made at a higher price.
Again, I just wanted to give you all an alternative to the Cusco bars.
So just reply to this with questions, comments or concerns. I would hate to have these built and sit on 20 roll bars.
Thanks

I was about to order a Cusco 4 point for $450 and ~$75 for shipping. How does this compare?
What will the material be? Will it be painted? Any idea on weight? Works with a sunroof, without one? More details please

also the setup cannot affect rear passenger compartment, i placed my subs in the rear 1/4 panels under the factory plastic so i can still use the rear fold down seat and still carry one or two passengers when i need to.
i'd like to see the design phase they have going to make suggestions.

I guess SpeedAlliance survived the fires then?
FYI: Chris posted this on freshalloy 6 or 7 months ago as well, white bunny advised him of the RXB issues.
