the cage looks nice but it wont hold up to well i dont think... to "smooth" looking... see the back the 4 bolts bolting it to the bumper and how its bent in... it being bent in like that will fold in a roll over... it would keep them alive probly but would only last one roll...

At first glance it just looked like the angle and the flex.
