pvc roll bar
has anybody ever thought of building a pvc roll bar for there truck just to mount some lights on , would it be cost free way to a cheap roll bar, or would it be just a waste of time and money

i still wouldnt trust it..i mean what if your trailing and u hit a branch ...your whole roll bar would be gone lol...i also think if u hit some pretty good wind it will start flexing a bit...and IF it breaks,there will be a possibility of it snaping and hitting your truck,causing it to scratch the shiat out of your paint and possibly denting it..i would pay the extra 100 bucks or whatever it cost and get a decent light rack..paint and fixing some dents will cost way more then your PVC roll bar lmao

remember on "trucks" with stacey david, when he was building the classic bronco when he realized that it had a pvc rollbar? he laughed and said "here is something that has got to go.. the dreaded pvc rollbar!"

My first thought when I read the title of this thread.
