Is this worth the $200? I'm running stock right now.

unless they're not shown it's missing the pieces that go to the bumper.

yep, its ducts going into the fog lamp area is missing, that is something that would be an issue replacing.

Worth calling and inquiring if all the pieces are there. But I agree that the pieces that connect at the front fascia area are not shown in the pics.

Might be a good deal if complete.
Personally I do not like any intake running K&N style oiled media, lets in too much fine grit, I have seen the results multiple times myself...
- but that is a different topic.

From the pictures everything is there, print them and bring them with you if you are going to buy it. If so, use your stock air bridge not their power duct and avoid placement issues with your hood. Make sure all the hose clamps are also included to make an easy install. If they do not have the directions you can down load them before you buy and make sure you are comfortable with the install.

it looks like it's missing those 2 pieces at the ends of the duct. the pieces that go over the fog lights.

I was looking at the pics in the add, it showed it on the last one, but that is probably from VeraRam pics. It is the most critical piece that is needed to work correctly.
