Default Can you weld a cage to your chassis?

Are all Roll bars bolted on? can you weld them on? is a full cage welded on?

You probably can weld the roll cage on.
Depending on how it's made.

You could have probs with the bodywork.
Personally I would bolt it on.

But that's just me....

I would leave it out for IVA, it's only another thing for them to look at and scrutinise
