Lol no cage is going with the car, might save halo bar and a couple small pieces but the majority is going with the car. No room to store a bent hood lol

In the past we have cut them out and saved some stuff but we are kind of over it at this point, rather just pay $200-$300 a car and get exactly what we want per rules and what not, some of the cage in that car wasn’t thick walled. Like I said we’ll save a couple of things but not a huge concern

I’ve never payed for cage material but I still save it all. When it starts getting chewed up from being welded and cut so many times I turn it into gusset parts. I do kick myself a little if I get too ambitious with building a cage, cutting a cage out might be my least favorite part

That's why i like only running luminas. Made a couple bolt in cages, takes a couple hours to install/ remove.
