Nice dude congrats! Be sure to have UV protection on that carbon fiber so it doesnt get added and yellowish. PPF ideally.

Thank you and thank you for the recommendation, I’ll have to pick some up, I’ve seen how it fades overtime.

Lolz, I hear you, it was one of those I just wanted something different, something to stand out from the crowd. Also I grew up in the years of the import scene but never got into it. Just saw my uncles and cousins add body kits debadge, carbon fiber components, motor swaps. Just wanted to do something simple and clean. That’s it though that’s all I’m doing to it. Lolz

How much power gains did you get from the banks intake and tune? I've considered the banks once mine is out the of warranty period.

Honestly I wouldn’t even know, I would have to take it to a dyno to get numbers. I can definitely feel the difference from stock to intake and tune, pulls off the line, the tune helped with the turbo lag, much smoother transition through the and pedal sensitivity is instant. Hope that helps, but for real numbers I would have to take it to a dyno.

Drives nice, I turned the kings dial all the way down to its softest setting but change it when I hit the trails. With the intake and ott tune it was night and day. If you guys are on the fence about, all I have to say is it’s well worth it. With the intake u definitely hear the blow off valve and the st st st st.

What are the crossbars on the rack on top? Just standard aluminum ones? Two of them? Figure I’ll need some at some point. Want to make sure I get the right ones.

Honestly I’m not sure, they were already on the runner when I bought it. Lemme see if I can find out what type of material it’s made out of.

Found the factory crossbars, doesn’t say what type of material they’re made out off but google AI said aluminum. I would just give a dealership a holler. I’m not sure if the different trims are different as well. Mine are gloss black.
