Default Light bar question and request

well my friend has a vert and he is going with a cage so he is getting rid of his light bar for 250 bucks, i've checked and the price is really good, he is installing it in my car if i buy it... anyway, i'm not really a fan of bars sometimes they look good sometimes they look just weird so guys what do you think??? if someone can post pictures of verts with light bars i would appreciate it, speciallly if they are silver verts with black interior and dark charcoal light bar thanks

I've been thinking of getting one for a while too. But to me from some angles the lightbars look great but from some other angles it looks a bit weird. I was wondering too, how tuf is it to get into the backseat when the bar is there?

I've had a light-bar myself for quite a while, i get a number of compliments on it. It definitely gives the car a cool look.

I must caution you, however, that getting in/out of the backseat becomes a little more of a chore. Also, it's head level so people in the back could bang their heads pretty hard if you get in an accident. Finally, this red LEDs are bright and some passengers in the back find it annoying.

I'd recommend getting Roush seat-belt guides because the stockers will actually interfere with the bar and the bar may prevent you from being able to fully recline either the passenger or drivers seats. Those stock loops are huge.

As far as dark charcoal gray on black, it'll look fine. It won't match perfectly with the interior but it won't look out-of-place either.

I've been thinking of getting one and the only reason that is holding me back is price. The cheapest I can find for the one with the light is like $400+installation. Unless anyone knows where I can get one for cheaper, I'm not sure I'll get one or I'll probably just give in and buy it anyway.

the lightbar adds a presence when the top is down...gives a hint of class like a Mercedes and yet still looks muscular. I get compliments at almost every light when my top is down.
