Well double sided tape seems like a very chinsey way of attaching the pieces.

I'm not sure there is a better way that's non destructive. I suppose they could have done something as a complete part replacement, but that would have been more expensive and much more difficult to install.

I did the steering wheel and gear shift/cup holder trim myself, and am rather happy with how it turned out. The trim more than wheel, which really surprised me. Better than I thought. I think the air vents maybe the next pieces are do, though they are a little more costly. I like the idea of covering all the light grey pieces, but not sure it's going to hold up well on the handles.

I did the steering wheel and fender vents. Everything fits extremely well and in my opinion does not look cheap at all. Wife picked up a couple of the other interior bits (door handles, console, center vents) for me for Christmas and I’ll be installing those this weekend. I’ll post some pics when I’m done.

In a duel battery setup like yours does the second battery draw on the alternator for charge as well? Sorry, pretty noob to the idea

I added an Isolator, so it only draws from the alternator to charge, cuts in at 13.3v then cuts off at 12.8v iirc. Also the isolator prevents the discharge of the “start battery” (stock battery). I believe its called a VSR or voltage sensitive relay. (see manufacturers install diagram)
Anyway, This my first time installing this kit, so I will update my post if I encounter any issues.
