As I was saying before, the build plan I am aiming for will be an aluminum bar structure, mounted longitudinally, with 2, 3 or 4 vertical ribs, with some perpendicular bars attaching them to eachother. The exact number and placement will be determined when I can get a cardboard mockup built on the car. I am hoping to be at least that far by the weekend. I usually average between 55-62 hours of work a week, plus time for my girlfriend, so free time is hard to come by.

When I first started building my Neon I was very hesitant, even a grill block had me worried. Now that I have slowly become desensitized to even some of the more drastic modifications, I am actually really looking forward to taking this next step. It has gone from simple money savings, to a whole lot of fun and a great way to let my creativity come to life. I can't give enough thanks to everyone here for your build threads, discussions and input you're giving me.
