    Rooftop tents?

    This is the video (or i think a subsequent one from the same user) where the guy puts the rooftop tent on the stock roofrack. Yes, you know what, it's the video after where they're sitting together on camp chairs discussing their built. they "skim" over the cons of having the rooftop tent and...

    Rooftop tents?

    Still not enough for a rooftop tent. I have the same car and the rooftop has that roller at the back. it's nothing over 250lbs.

    Rooftop tents?

    That's a recipe for a dent on the roof. you should change it to an aftermarket one that's basically fully attached to the roof to evenly distribute the weight. anything above the factory weight limit (especially 500+ lbs!!!) is going to ruin your roof. THe rooftop tent is awesome and most likely...

    You can put a water reservoir underneath instead, and you can fill it from the top without removing and putting back. I totally agree. Tire on the swing plus maybe a trash bag on top (or not) but so much more room for stuff without making the car any wider. I would've loved that too but I have a...

    Here's a night photo for now... I wrapped up an hour ago. Finished at 6 but as you could see from my previous pics I make a ton of mess everywhere.

    Still false advertising on the main page... No cutting, grinding, welding? All the rookies like me who think it's just a couple of screws are falling for it. Either way ... Almost done putting it together anyway.

    Yes I noticed that after the fact... They all have those ends. The cutting part wasn't as bad plus I got some metal work XP out of it... it was the demoralization after opening it all up and seeing something completely different. I'm past all that now since wiring is the new nightmare. I wanted...

    I cut them off... Customer rep at 3 back and forths said I have to cut them off and they all come like this. Funny how it was advertised as bolt-on. Maybe that just means it's not welded on.

    Nevermind, I just saw another Z71 without the bumper on and it looks exactly like this... Ahhhh noooo... Are the non Z71 metal bumpers different? Maybe I got the part that fits those instead. I just don't want to start grinding away if it's gonna come up short somehow. What a bummer

    just opened up my front end to install the new bumper...my bumper looks unusual based on other pics I've seen. There's like an extra piece sticking out...I think this was welded on afterwards am I right? I gotta cut off the excess to fit the winch plate... I hope I'm not messing it up.
