Here's the one thing I did notice that nobody mentioned or noticed yet. Between 40 and 50 miles per hour, with the sunroof open I get a tremendous air modulation. I wasn't sure if it was due to the change, so I lowered it back down and drove it and the modulation was gone. It changes the aerodynamics enough to cause some wind buffeting into the sunroof at a certain speed. Opening one of the back windows about an inch stops the problem.

Anyway, other than that one odd effect, I like the look much better, and it certainly didn't affect the way it handles on or off road.

I just made a check with the sun roof opened and noticed a slight wind noise around 50 to 60 MPH. I do have the brush grill go it may have disturbed the wind flow less noise than yours.

I still like the higher front end so I am going to live with the slight noise when the sun roof is open and turn up the radio when needed.
