(No need to have the side bars on for normal driving). It's OK for a bolt in. I went with the RPM primarily because Brian at MA-Motorsports wouldn't be able to fabricate a custom one until this coming winter again. Fortunately I don't need to have the seat racked all of the way back so it's not too cramped. One drawback is that it further reduces the already very slim view out the back, making it difficult to back up or even see traffic behind you. A custom roll bar could be fabricated to minimize this by bringing the top hoop forward. I'm considering getting a rear view mirror with the rear camera feature - or going with a Pioneer H/U that has the rear camera feature. Side note here ... I went to the dragstrip and the Inspector told me that NHRA had changed the rules recently and that I didn't need the roll bar until 10.0. He said that NHRA revamped and modernized the rules now that factory cars were running in the 11's and even faster. Next time to the strip and a different Inspector didn't mention the rules changes. Worth checking it out.

Forgot to add...
The cost quoted to me by Daelen for a custom rollbar by MA-Motorsports would be in the neighborhood of $3500 and $4000. The cost of the RPM was $2100+ and an additional $1700+ for the installation by MA. So - no benefit going with the prefab RPM over the custom MA-M one except for the time savings.
