I bought the buttercup sensor covers. Those sensors look way too exposed IMO.

The covers are pretty thick metal, nicely powder coated. They claim they're made in the USA. I didn't think to take any pics before I installed them.

The way the Aussie parts mount does look superior. The buttercup covers use the sensor mounting bolts. Install was extremely easy.

I have them also for the same reason. The ones from Ausmotion are 299.00

Keep in mind that is AUD so roughly $200 USD. $100 each with a relatively small market and engineering/R&D time along with materials, hardware and fabrication seems ok to me for peace of mind on a trail.
I've been driving a pretty well upgraded Jeep for years and I get what your saying, and I know those are Aussie bucks but even $200usd is high for a pair of brackets that are questionable whether they are needed is your choice.
Any after market company making things like this has loss leaders like any other market. Those brackets are easy to design and make and aren't something you base your budget on so I doubt that's a big concern.
I'm just saying they're overpriced, $100 for the pair would be fair, still high for what they are and more than cover the costs involved with marketing them, and you'd probably sell a ton more.

Yeah, Buttercup had her sensor protectors on sale, the same day she posted the video of her "broken truck." What a coincidence!
I also really enjoy the gorilla marketing they are doing on r/rangeraptor this acocunt sasquatchmebronco only posts about buckleupoffroad items its very obviously a ploy.

Phade is spot on with his post in my opinion. Buttercup is in Florida and setup as a reseller for Process West in the US (buckleupoffroad.com).

When I decide to mod the RR for power, I’d plan to tune as part of my installation of an updated intercooler on a dyno. Canned tunes and over the air remote tunes are ok, but to get the most out of a custom tune I’d plan on using a dyno, and would want all my planned bolt ons to be done to get the most out of them with the tuning process.

I can say I had a Process West TMIC on a Subaru Legacy spec.B and the quality of their parts is really impressive. The core design and density was fantastic, along with custom brackets for OE location fitment and quality custom silicone couplers.

I’d likely do the hard pipes and intake too, but more for engine bay bling than anything. Plastic piping and intake doesn’t heat up as much as aluminum, so some DEI reflect a gold wrap or similar might be prudent to keep the charge temps down to get the best IATs. To need more flow than the OE intake provides(with a quality filter), you’re likely going to need bigger turbos and more fuel (pump and injectors).
Buckle Up Off Road happens to be owned by one of my go to vendors I got a majority of my parts from when I was in the motorsports industry. If you are looking for PW gear I would highly recommend BUOR as my experience with Nahm Industries is un matched by anyone else I have done business with.
