Light Bar: Like, No Like
Here's a discussion for us vert owners.
Do you like the look of the light bar/roll bar on our cars?
I personally don't. I remember the first time I saw one a few years back on a heavily modded car, I thought to myself, hot car but that roll bar has got to go. And I still feel the same way to the point that the vert in my sig, that I recently bought, has a light bar and it's coming out soon as I pull the car out in the Spring.
The reason I don't like light bars is that they ruin the lines of the car, the profile (top down). There shouldn't be anything aft of the windshield when the top is down, just beautiful clean air. Same with sitting in the car, with the top down all I want above my head is blue sky or twinkling stars, not some dumb black bar inches above my skull.

I like them. Especially on saleens. Here is a pic of my car and myself with the lightbar.
I think they make the car look more muscular.
I guess i can understand someone not likeing them, but i don't understand how you could say it looks bad.....

I could like them, but to me the lines of the curve as viewed from the rear don't really match the curves of the rest of the car. I suppose they had to narrow the top of the curve a lot in order to let the top go up without hitting it.
They also make your rear seat even more useless than the rear seat in a vert Stang already are lol.
But for those issues, I don't mind them. I wouldn't buy one for my car but don't mind seeing them on other peoples stangs.
