I might be interested if you have a set for an A body. I just put my name on a waiting list to get a roll bar put in my Duster and the first thing they asked was whether I planned on keeping the arm rests or not.
Any idea on pricing/delivery time?

I'm guessing it would be car specific. Not all cages are welded the same. It would involve a small template...I used cardboard. They take about 12-16 hours to print out. So I'd guess a 10-14 day turn around. Makes sense, thanks. I will keep it in mind when the car goes in.

I may want a set. Your PM mailbox is full. How much are they costing?

They hollow or solid? ...Don't let FMJ hear you if you say they are solid...

Never had the need but what's your point ?? You think 12-16 hours is a reasonable time and 3D printing a good method to make those things ?!?! The materials are dirt cheap, and they have the exact backing as the factory units...meaning the "nubs" embossed for the factory screws. Doubt you could make that as accurate in less than an hour.

Not a waste of resources - just a slow 3D printer! 3D printing is here and is the future of manufacturing - ever see the 3D powder metal printers? 3D printing will NEVER be fast enough to be a "manufacturing" process. Rapid prototyping but never "manufacturing". Doubt you could make that as accurate in less than an hour. Well it sure as hell wouldn't take me 12-16 hours !!!
