I give the product a 10 across the board with the minor exception that the rear faring is a little too close to the roof of the 4runner. When loaded up I feel like it will rub. This was easily fixed by adding pieces of the extra faring rubber protector (from the front faring) to the pointy spots. Bottom line: High quality and lightweight product at a competitive price. Also barely any noticeable wind noise...or MPG drop (maybe .5 mpg?)

I had an issue where rear fairing would hit the roof in certain wind conditions even in the highest position. I saw the 90 bends at the ends for mounting were actually more than 90 and caused the the center of the fairing to be drawn down and closer to the roof when mounting bolts were tightened. I Placed the two end bends in a vice and made the bends 90 degrees. Now fairing is not drawn down and has plenty of clearance even without the rubber molding. I wanted to avoid using the rubber molding as I was concerned It would scratch the roof over time due to dirt working it’s way under it.
