Yeah, if you are on a budget, then this can be a good route. Unless you have to buy the tools to do the work in the first place. Not that the tools wouldn't then come in handy later mind you, but if we look at it from a 1 use perspective then buying a full system isn't that much more expensive.

The downside to buying the system will be the 3-4 weeks it takes to arrive.

The upside is - stainless steel, and most likely lighter than the stock system. Plus, it looks cool.
