You have to enter all of your information and any speed changes if you changed tire sizes or anything. It figures it by measuring the flow rate to the cylinders against your correct speed.

Give the top corners some radius/curve and it'll look pretty good from 5 feet. After you get the right curve, take a dremel to etch a ledge to look more factory. Paint it up proper and it'll look good up close too.

This is what I got mines a couple dollars more then some because I went with an American seller

Mines worse with the lift lol. The filter is easier to get to but the drain plug is right above the crossmember now.

No my dad was the original owner. We traded vehicles awhile back. But it came off the lot with no flares. And yea it's an 04 heritage.
