    I can get you all that stuff. You can order small parts directly from Thule(missing bolts and such)

    If you know what the small parts are we most likely have them in shop. We have a huge stash of stuff.

    there are almost no places that will sell bars individually, except for my shop.

    K, just making sure.

    With those towers be sure to take them off once a month and clean underneath them. They tend to build up dirt rings and mess the paint up.

    It's got a surfboard attachment, and that's all I ever intend to carry. For now it's a cosmetic thing primarily.

    Those would be 400XT towers which are not meant to fit either of those vehicles(the e28 or your e30) that is why it was such a weird fitment.

    I would really be careful about putting too much weight on that rack, or carrying bikes or anything tall.

    haha no, they are meant for really wide/tall gutters...i really had to mess with them to get them snug without messing up my paint or restricting my doors from opening haha...

    an e28 should have identical mounts to the e30, as they both have raingutters.

    If you can get me a picture I should be able to let you know exactly what they are.

    and as far as the fairing goes I run one that is oversized for the car. It helps break up the noise over fitting the correct size.

    i just picked up a nice thule rack with fairing from an e28 guy. none of the mounts were right, and the fairing is WAY too fat but with a little ingenuity i got it on snug without any major harm to paint/trim. trying to discover what model it is...i'd post pics but i think i left my phone at a bar and i'm trying to track it down...

    I need 2 thule fit clips, 325x is stamped on the 2 i have, compatible with my ladys mk4 jetta.(fit kit 2047) The current clip setup on the rack we got is for a 2dr golf, but the fit kit came with 6 clips total, PO only had 4.

    Halp?

    For what it's worth, I've got a set of Sportrack roof racks that I've been using for years. I've got ski racks, bike racks, and a tote (or "my bubble") and they all go on securly and easily. However, it touches the paint and leaves a foot print sometimes.
    I've also had a Yakima setup on my roof, and I would say it's much better for strapping heavier loads to the roof as it doesn't rest on the roof, rather just the rain gutters. Doesn't hurt the paint at all. Never had an issue with poor fitment with either.

    A fairing is normally 70 and the locks, a 4 pack that is, would be 55. Sadly Yakima does not allow us to go below 10% off of any item. But send me a pm.
