    Issue we ran into.

    The 4Runner racks don't allow the wind fairing to be set anywhere but the top setting so it blocks my lightbar. Any thought @zscott? Any lower and it would touch my paint. Like full contact.

    Can you raise the light bar with a spacer or bracket?
    Maybe make new mounting holes?

    @GHOST SHIP is the mastermind. He's working his magic on a mount. Just wished it could be sleeker and sit below the roof rack line. No big deal though

    Yeah unfortunately with the 4runner there isn't a way to get the lightbar completely below the rack platform. With the heretic mounts and similar sized lightbar it is close but still sits a little higher than the tacoma would.

    Makes sense. We are thinking of shaving off a half inch off the bottom of the fairing so that it can slide lower and show the lightbar better. What do you think?

    You'll have to come over, but we can knock it out pretty quick. Just have to sneak up on it and take as little as necessary to get the lightbar lower. Might even forward that info to the new prinsu design team so they can make adjustments for the future.
