Looks great, tricky install
For $10, it's worth it to protect your $110 body, especially since the roof gets beat up flipping over on concrete. To install, you gotta make big holes for the 4 pegs on the underside. If you dont have a body reamer, you might wanna get one to make it easier. I used a drill bit and razor, but the drill bit cut the body support underneath, so I needed screws with bigger heads. In the end, it looks and works awesome!
