82-92 Camaro/Firebird Convertible Light Bars
Hey Guys I was looking around on the hawks 3rd gen website and saw they had a roll bar (they call it a light bar) for a 3rd gen vert. Just thought I would post this so you guys know about it. I think they are trying to get 15 or more people to order these in order to start making them. Check it out

For $499 it better serve a purpose other than a light bar. It should somehow stiffen up the chassis better yet be a roll bar. I believe it's just plastic and it's strictly for looks.

For that price you're well on your way to having a true roll bar welded it. And I'd go the rollbar. Safety > Looks.

they arent plastic, they are a steel bar wrapped in leather and the are bolted to to body to add strength and stiffness.

Re: 82-92 Camaro/Firebird Convertible Light Bars
Look at the bar, it goes up and over. That's not going to add any noticable stiffness to the car. It's going to flex like hell. If it were straight across it would prevent SOME flex.
