If you think about it pretty funny that a 5000 LB truck, has carbon fiber accessories
I would have definitely taken a cheaper PP/PUR version if it was available OEM. I've seen GFK versions on e-bay but didn't want to deal with fitment issues.

Well, can't have these accessories adding even more weight!

I am impressed with how light it is and the finish on it looks fantastic. Did you end up installing with beta-link or did you use 3m tape?
Never use 3m on the front. It simply won't hold with air pressure/time. Do the job well the first time with beta-link.

Dont be like me this is my 3rd or 4th install and Ended up buying two OEM front splitters. The first one went down on me one windy night on the highway.. terrible experience.
