Just be aware that if you are going to use an Acuity collar you MUST let Overland know, their default size is of the neck opening is for the OEM collar and it doesn't work well IMO with the Acuity (smaller diameter).

Can't you flip that collar so it works either way?

No, it has to do with the diameter of the center section of the collars - it's narrower on Acuity's (and other generic one I have as well). I tried wrapping some tape and other ways to get it to look good but no matter what I had wrinkles with Overland/Acuity. So make sure to tell them it's going with an Acuity so you get perfect fitment, I saw one person here even sent their collar in so it would be perfect, not a bad idea at all.

The exposed portion of the collar is also smaller, may or may not matter depending on what knob you use - my current custom knob won't work with an Acuity because the knob's base is wider, I mean it would work but it would look bad. OEM sized knob looks/fits fine with the Acuity.

Is the Overland opening too small or too large?

I still have the OEM ones in a box, they look so meh for the amount of work to install.
Knowing that you've upgraded your audio, this install should be a breeze for you. It took me like 15 minutes and I was taking my time, its incredibly easy.

Hit a softball-sized rock on the road this morning. Didn't have enough time to avoid it. Busted both right rims :(

Thankfully, the damage only appears to be isolated to the wheels.

Oh wow. I hit a similar sized rock last week at 50. I did a quick look and didn't see any damage and the air held. I need to double check and see since it was pretty violent.

I got a few requests for pictures showing my Cusco wing risers from further away, and before taking these pictures, I didn't think the wing stood much higher from stock... but you be the judge.

I still think they could stand to be 2"-3" taller, but couldn't we all?

On me being taller absolutely, on the wing ehhh I’m good.😂😂

Looks great I would actually like it just a tad lower. By maybe an inch.

Too large for the Acuity, the Acuity has a smaller diameter vs the OEM collar. I tried padding the Acuity with some tape but I just couldn't get it to look 100%.

It's not too bad but the OEM ones are so underwhelming I just can't be bothered, my work area is an open driveway and the good weather is just about over here. I've finally seen CF versions that are molded and cover the black plastic piece above and closer to the interior which is actually more what I'm interested in.

From the profile, it doesn’t look that tall. But from the rear it looks really tall. Maybe it’s the angle of the risers.

I just picked up my car from the detailer. Did a full initial detail/decontamination with paint correction, PPF the front half with pieces on high impact areas in the rear quarter panel and bumper, ceramic, and tint. Here's some potato lighting pictures.

If you have access to more PPF I'd do the leading edge of the roof.
