I'm looking out for a roll bar for my NA which is going to be mainly a road car but with the odd track day thrown in. I figured some roll over protection would be advisable!

I've been keeping an eye on forums, FB and eBay but they never seem to come up second hand so I think I'll just have to go new.

The roll bars I've been looking at all seem to look really modern though, I know this is due to the fact they are mostly made to the highest standards of safety but I'm really trying to keep a retro Elan feel to my NA.

Can anyone point in the direction of a bar or hoop with a more classic look to it?!

Sorry for the day's oddest question

Tom

I have a Safety 21 4 point on mine which is about as period as you get for an MX5 as it's what cusco were making for the ca run the 90s.

I've seen a couple on the Facebook groups and ebay over the last few months. Might be worth popping a wanted ad on the various fb for sale pages.
