Define affordable but from a price per quality perspective you can't really go wrong with Hergesheimer's guy. He did my car, took a while but the results speak for themselves.

Holy crap Evan!! Your cage is insane!!!

What are you planning for? Crash tests? How much was that? $6k? I am hoping to only spend around $2,500.

I'll call Hergesheimer. Thanks guys.

Yes, my cage was around $6k but I think it is worth it. I don't plan on crashing but if/when I do, I should be well protected. If the cage had stayed inside the car and not gone through the firewalls, it would have been ~$3k. Mig welding vs. Tig and mild steel vs. 4130 would have brought the price down more as well.
