Roof rack question.

So i'm trying to decide between a catback or a roofrack when I get paid again.I'm leaning towards the rack.What is the right size fairing for the Yakima for our xbs?The lower profile,not the weird tall one.

Yep and Tim states its the 50 inch you want out of those. Just measure across the top of your car and decide if a 50 inch or one of the others will work best for you. check Yakima's site for options good luck

Re: Roof rack question.

Personally i would'nt want a rack that you have to clip on to the car, in between the top of the door and the roof line, it chips paint off and might dent it up,

Dose anyone know where i can check out some racks that are not like yakima type,?

I have the Yakima rack and I've never had an issue with paint being chipped or dents. You just have to exercise caution and an extra set of hands helps when installing.
