To embelish.......

 

From SD website - have a look as there's some good info for your 'additions' such as this

 

CDS Carbon Steel

Otherwise known as Cold Drawn Seamless Carbon Steel, this is the material is used to manufacture all of our standard motor sport and 4 x 4 roll cages as it conforms to FIA material specification requirements and offers good elongation and weld-ability, which are key. Compared to T-45 it is a very cost effective material.

Modify the cage and it will no longer be FIA approved.

I'd have to check my blue book and I can't really be bothered I'm sure I was told if modified you can't use it on UK stage rallys when I was looking and adding to an OMP.

......is it even for competition use.........

Yeah screw it then, modify it and make it worth nothing in that case...

 

Same difference!

its just for road use. but i see your point might just look into gettin a whole new cage.
