The looks don’t stop there. Also included are injection-moulded roof rack, three-piece front bumper with D-rings, snorkel, and accessory decal sheet. Gripping the trail is a set of officially licensed General Grabber A/T X tires moulded in a high-performance, soft compound rubber.

Both parts are compatible with the optional sliding design lower pod plate and due to their -0.5mm roll centre specification, they make for increased rear end stability and reduced steering in the middle and exit of a corner.
