WTB Brey Krause roll bar extension
 
Looking for one for 2000 Boxster? Any out there?

Just to say in advance, I don't have one for sale. Just a piece of advice:

I don't know if you're looking for one for a PCA track day event or not, but if you are, just so you know, such an extension might not be required. Per the PCA website on convertibles:

Quote:

Cabriolet/Convertible Cars: Any make of car delivered with factory installed roll over protection meets the minimum standards for PCA DE events. In these cars we recommend the soft-top be in the up position or the hard top installed. If the top is in the down position, restraint system* must be used. An SFI and/or FIA approved arm
If a car does not have factory installed roll over protection, a roll bar or roll cage must be installed, which meets the "broomstick" rule (the driver's helmeted head is below a bar placed on top of the roll bar and windshield). Design, installation and materials of roll bars or cages and their installation must meet PCA Club Racing specifications, contained in Appendix A-Roll Cage Specifications of the PCA Club Racing Rules. All targa tops must be installed unless there is addition roll over protection. All sunroofs must be in the closed position. The windshield alone is not considered to be factory roll over protection.
Since the Boxster has a factory-installed rollbar, this meets the minimum requirements per PCA rules. Now, your local PCA chapter might have more stringent rules than the national requirements - that's certainly up to them, but as-built Boxsters should meet the minimum standard.

That said, I bought one for my last DE this past weekend (I'm 6'2") and ran with it on just for the peace of mind, I guess. I did think about not using it though, and might have not bought one if I had read the PCA rules ahead of time just to save some $$$.

Cheers,
Jason
