Replacing D22 DX rear windscreen bar with sports bar

[Agent009]

Hi I'm thinking of replacing the standard rear windscreen DX bar (2001 model) with a sports bar. Was thinking of getting the sports bar powder coated black and I think the sports bars look quite good.

Although some people say they prefer the standard bar and that sports bars are a nuisance. What do you think???

Below is image of the current bar on rear windscreen that i was going to swap for sports bar.

Thoughts?

Sports bar less practical but looks better

Thanks pointblank. Yeah that's sorta my train of thought at the moment. I just gotta work out if the better looks outweigh the practicalities....

If you do this will a str roll bar and soft tonneau cover fit straight onto the dx?

Hi Agent009, I am thinking of doing the same thing. Did you end up putting the sports bar on? Is it easy to install?

Cheers
