Hi Alex,
My opinion rake it inwards to suit rear hoop..

I looks fine, use it as it is. When all the other tubes and the windscreen are in place and you step back from it, it will look like you designed it to be that way.

I did not really notice it untill it put the crossbars in place then it makes it more noticeable as you can see the distance between bends is different.

Will be running an aero screen to keep things simple for IVA. I'm really not sure what to do.

The easy and cheap option is a new straight up rear hoop but it wont look as funky. But the proper option would be the front hoop. Bugger!

But have to admit the service from Scorpion has been fantastic and they have done everything exactly as asked. Its my fault for dodgy specification heh

bend the front in will look best.
Personally hate bad looking cages so spend the cash and get it right as you'll always think it could have looked better!

if you change the rear hoop someone here will want the old one I bet.

I think I'd have the front remade to the angle of the back

After having my mate sit in the car its suprising how close the rear hoop is to the head and shoulders of the driver. I think for saftey that the rear hoop to match the front is a good option.

Not thought about elbow protection yet but worth looking into! If i did have one i would make it bolt on.

Well ordered a straight rear hoop. Will have a hoop going spare i think not sure if it will be straight or the one thats leaning inwards. Will upload some pics.

Have also ordered some extra tube as i have a couple of extra ideas.

Dont suppose anyone has any good examples of the side elbow cage bar things?
