Does anyone have good close ups of the rops for a l1500? I am hoping to buy one but if unable I am willing and able to fab them so having a visual would be very helpful.

I love to fabricate just about anything, but I would caution you on making a ROPS!
If you do and god forbid something ever happens that it needs it, and it fails, hopefully it only kills or injures you because if it does it to anyone else you won't be able to live with yourself (or at least I wouldn't be able to live with myself).:(

Buy a certified ROPS and seatbelt!;)

That is my intent and I have contacted the company mentioned. I viewed their website and have inquired about shipping to a rural address. That being said I am a certified trades person well familiar with fabrication and safety. This is not a cost saving initiative and I have no plans to sell my tractor.

I have a L185F which is similar (I think). I will take some pictures this weekend and post them up.
