My CU2 has some crazy rear camber and toe.

Highly recommend Megan Racing and not much, however I would get all three at the same time and do your alignment right after you have the 3 piece kit installed

I have not rolled my car yet.... nor do i plan too. Only reason i can see for getting a roll cage would be if you track your car?

LoL i haven't rolled my car either hahaha

I purchased my roll cage from Autopower here in San Diego, it is a "bolt on" roll bar.

It is functional, and why not...

Back seat is only good for humping... and you don't want to hump in your car, it's bad luck.
