Default For those with BGRA?

imo i would get all three, gasket seals the hood to airbox, rain shield if you drive in rain, and corner pieces clean up the appearance of the hood

It comes with the gasket. I ordered the rain blocker but not the nostril pieces. I used my stock grille inserts so didn't need the inserts.

If you keep the gasket lubed per the instructions, and take care taking it out when it rains, the one that comes with it should last a long time. I bought the rain plate too to be safe.

Brian green ram air, I bought it from him along time ago, cant seem to find the address. One of the sponsors has it. It works with the stock ram air holes, in a sealed fashion. Brings in cleaner air than the ground kits, you dont have to clean your filter near as much.

edit: afterthoughts auto at right carries it.
