ok ya that looks good , i have always had imports so the roof rack just looks natural so i wasnt sure what it would look like hahahha. im for sure going to buy the clips i need today and throwing it back on the car. thanks for the pics your car looks great .
 
so long as you actually use it i love the idea (i own a rack my my scoob). i just hate when dorks ride around with them on for no reason at all besides 'the look'.
 


lol well im a bicycle mechanic and avid mountain rider so i think it will get used. besides that if you saw how much i have already used it just from the wear on it there wouldnt be a question . Thats a great point though .
 
I really want to get one to haul the scooter I built around and my snowboard haha. Wheres the best place to pick one up at? And you were saying somehting about needing certain clips? Im guessing when I buy one it will be specific for my car so I will get the correct clips?
 
you need a set of q towers , 48 inch cross bars, q80 clips and a tray . there are a lot of trays out there like the boa which is the cheapest and so on , pick the one that works best for what is going to be on your rack. your best bet is to get a whole used set up for cheap on craigslist and then just switch the clips.
 
i know you dont want to hear this but just like anything else you get what you pay for and that is very cheap and universal usually means poor fit . I dont know about you but when i have my bike mounted to my car i dont want it going anywhere , i have way to much money wrapped up in it. Spend a little extra and get something like this........Yakima Towers (4), Crossbars (2) and Fairing
 


Yea thats what I figured, I just know il barely use it. But Im going to keep my eyes open for a nicer one. Thank you!
