LOL - Yeah I am not looking to cut the hood as well.
Yeah I've heard of fitment issues as well as excessive plastic waste still intact requiring a decent amount of prep to get installed. Dropping $500+ on it, I fully expect the thing to be ready to go with today's injection molding tech.Not yet, Quadratec has them shipping 14 Feb. Once I get it, I'll post a pic of the cowl installed before I start painting it. In the pic, the area of concern is the fitment around the A-pillar at the windshield, but that was from pre-production models (based on my you tube research), so I would think it's all been sorted out by now, as the release date was originally mid-January.
you going to paint just the lower portion, or the whole piece that sticks up too?Not yet, Quadratec has them shipping 14 Feb.

I'll start with just the lower portion to see how it goes. I have 2 cans of Gator spray paint. I just have to remember not to rush it, as I always do when painting and end up with runs.
many light coats I believe.
I've seen it brought up a few times, but it looks like someone was able to get the Hauk installed over the Genesis dual battery...

Reach out to the guy in that thread I posted.

Looks great @Dorbritz! Did you paint to match yourself? If so, how difficult was it? I had actually wondered if it might be easier to paint the opposite cowl cover black. I am more concerned about symmetry than the actual color
Any concerns about water getting in with the low profile mode when in heavy rain? Their site says there is a drain, but this is not clearly visible in the install instructions.
