I doubt if there's any difference between the covers, except that Berg adds a 
pre modified fitting to the cover at a particular angle to give you a good head 
start. I hope you're not confusing a Bug Stop cover price with the complete 
Berg kit price. Berg also offers a pressure relief cover that is a better choice 
if you will be driving in cold weather.

Yes, you have to modify the rear crossbar either way. I sell a drawing that 
shows exactly where to cut to do this. You don't want to cut away any more 
material than absolutely necessary.
