Yep, got mine on last night. All went well except for the clips closest to the front. The lift was blocking these. I still gotta get these on.

I over turned one of the bolts a half turn past "tight" and it sheared. Gotta crack out my easy-out set to pull this one.

Less rattling/noise underneath for me. The oem panels are a lot thicker and sturdier than the flimsy usdm ones.

Price right now to Toronto for a single set is $204.49 + $134.82 for a total of $339.31, plus whatever customs dings you with.

I'm interested, but the only smart way seems to find 3 friends that want them as well.

I could swear I felt a difference in my butt dyno. The ride seems quieter until I am anywhere near gravel/sand. My tires will kick up stuff into the under panels and make more noise.

The only real difference for me is peace of mind that I have OEM underbody protection with great fit and finish.

Just finished installing it. No sweat everything makes sense when you're underneath the car.

I noticed this a couple weeks ago. Not sure what's going on tho.

I'm thinking of adding on the center sections like how the TRD Griffon. Shouldn't cost too much to make it myself.
