Default Tubular shock towers

I've done a search with no results.

It seems I've seen a few cars where they cut out the shock towers and tied in a tubular tower into the cage. Does anyone have more info on this?

Search for 9sec93. He had a back halfed car that he did, and is one of the the most popular when it comes to this kind of modification.

Here's what I've found thus far. It looks like 9sec93 changed his design a little.
