Ok so thanks to you I now know about this product and watching youtube videos from multiple detailers about this product has me sold. It says it can go on any surface so I'm guessing it's good for PPF as well. Definitely gonna look into this and test it out.

This almost sounds like a lack of communication between engineers moving to fast and they got to the end and went "oh s, where is this going to go". Go get some velcro from Home Depot and slap it on the bottom of the bag and the other end on the cargo mat - to keep it secured. Very inelegant, but at least it won't move around when you're hitting peak HP on the highway, maneuvering around those slow left lane drivers.

It's $17 dollars for a pint in a spray bottle: https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B0779KCS..._t1_B07KGMHJKS

$37 for a gallon:https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B0779LMP..._t2_B07KGMHJKS

Velcro is a good solution with the regular liner in the back but I got the audiguard rubber weatherliner so that won't really work. I just did the best I can to strap it down to the tethering hooks. As least it came with 2 straps

Wow, that intercooler looks like it's capable of freezing the air. What kind of HP/Tq gains you looking at?
