like i said nothing is final or welded, based on feedback i will probably just go that way..it was mocked up originally that way anyway

Well sweet the reading is paying off. Those are some awesome compound bends you have there. And well now that you moved the A pillar one in, well whats holding you back from moving the trunk, i guess C pillar to farther to the outside of the Hoop and then running the A pillar how it was before so you can have that roof line protection.
