    Tangent Roll Bar Kits

    Does anybody know if Don is still providing these kits? The website no longer exists and my private messages have gone unanswered. Any help on this or a similar product would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks

    I got his last set of oil cooler scoop driving lights, and it was his prototype set. Me thinks he is done.

    If I knew then what I know now, I'd skip the FFR roll bars and go with the Breeze bars. All the mounting points and hardware are in the trunk. They require fitting, welding, and finishing in your choice of paint, powder coat, chrome, whatever, but they sure look nice.

    Tangent closed shop in April I believe. I spoke with them back in March and picked up two hidden fasteners for the larger FFR roll bars that he was able to piece together.

    Yeah I had the Tangent light on my previous cobra and loved them. Was looking forward to doing them on the current build as well, so if anyone knows of an alternative I'd be interested.
