I've got some from GM brand spankin new, not even painted....but they're expensive.
10-22-2008
how much is expensive and what colour are they?
10-22-2008
290 shipped IIRC....and they're kinda a primer black/grey.
10-22-2008
Are they easy to install? I should ask to i have a 4 door? would they fit and are they easy to paint?
10-22-2008
They fit all bodies, 2 or 4 door. I can't tell you about paint, but they simply stick on with an adhesive. You'd have to talk to someone who paints on the other issues.
10-22-2008
I have seen 2 doors and 4 doors and i would just asume that they are different sizes.
10-22-2008
Nope, the coupes and sedans are the same wheel base.
You also may be able to find them used on Ebay sometimes. But they're getting hard to come by.
10-22-2008
i know that. I swore i saw a sight a while back that was selling them but i must have saw wrong cause i cant find them anywhere.
10-22-2008
Most places sell out of them pretty fast.
If you really want them after you have looked everywhere else, I do have them. I wish I could sell cheaper, but that's the best I can do. I hope you find you a good set someplace.
10-22-2008
No forsure i will let you know. I still have alot of digging to do. lol
thanks

I"ve got 3 sets left as of now, and when they are gone, they're probably gone. I've sat on them too long to consider buying them ever again.
10-26-2008
if you still have them toward the end of next month i'll be interest for a set. i think they look sick on my monte
10-27-2008
Do you know if they'll fit on the 04+?
10-28-2008
Not without modification/additions. They are too short for the channel. They are the correct shape though. Roof rails will fit all (not sure what years, ? to current) Montes and 97-03 GPs, others you would have to customize.
10-28-2008
can somebody tell me what the hell GM was thinking when they designed these rails.
I honestley dont see any use for them. am I wrong?
10-29-2008
i'm pretty sure it have something to do with nascar racing. my guess would be same purpose as what the spoiler does.
10-29-2008
Yeah, they are purely appearance additions inspired by the NASCAR roof "fences". In NASCAR, they do serve a purpose. Google it and you can find all kinds of info on the real parts, function, theory, etc. Ours began with the GP Pace Cars and were later added to Special Editions and 40th Editions.
Unrelated, but these are also used in top speed vehicles at places like the Bonneville Salt Flats, etc. Just another aid to keep all four wheels on the ground. I'm sure ours would show some, but minimal real function and probably at speeds above what most or all would do in them. The real ones also aren't as "pretty". and have few similarities.
