There arent' any pre fabbed roll bars, you need to get it custom made.

Are you wanting one for racing/track or just for looks?

As shabby said, racing would require a custom (expensive) mod to the car.

One just for looks....there use to be someone that made one but I don't know if they still do..if that's what you are looking for I can try and find out.

The one just for looks was from RMR (Rhys Millen Racing) and was called a "Style Bar" if memory serves.  I don't think they sell them any more, but here is there website if you want to contact them:

Private track events are your best bet.  Groups such as Redline and whatnot will often not want the possible liability, even if you sign a waiver.  Private rentals however, will be more likely to be ok with a waiver.

I run with the NNJR Porsche Club with the RMR bar. They allow it for HPDE.

The RMR bar will probably do more harm than good if you roll over, but hey, it let's me get out there.
