    I could just raise it, throw some offroad tires and make it a tribute to the rally 911s. Lol

    You just need a rollbar/hoop really. Forward bars can be a bad idea in a street car, the door bars may be ok just depends if you and your passenger want to climb over them. Even a minor accident they can do more harm than good though.

    God that is sick. I love that look.
    I don't really want any bars that go past the front seats since it's mostly for street but don't want any z3 gay ass hoops or such either.

    The hoop is the main bar behind your head.

    Trust me, especially on a 911, go with some bars that tie the front half of the car to the rear. It makes a work of difference in chassis rigidity......

    Yes, but if it isn't doing 100% track duties, the convenience of not having a full cage out weighs having to deal with its headaches on the street.

    If it isn't going to be a daily driver, I'd definitely just remove the carpet. Yes, you'll hear everything on the road, but there's also no other feeling hearing everything. Most likely, windows are going to be down anyway.....

    No carpet can look really clean. Here's a 944S2 with 968 engine conversion prepped for track by J3. A fellow named Chad got it built and it is now sold to an individual. I like the way it looks with what was removed and what stayed put. The dash remained relatively stock, but it looks right at home.

    The car was intended for 50/50 duties. My spec car looks very similar, except for the full cage and dirt everywhere.
