Roof Racks

[bruner]

Im looking for a set of Thule 300 towers that fit our cars if anyone has a set they wanna sell...;)

naw the rubber pads hold up well. And the towers dont move. Its pretty solid

[R3Z3N]

But it does rub the paint on the roof, even with the pads.

I like my yakima rack. It just hooks onto the sides so doesnt rub off the paint in the rain gutters like the other racks on here.

It's for an '87 325. When I use the "fit my car" section of Yakima.com it says I can use the 1A Raingutter system or the Q Towers with q30 clips. I've used it on other cars, but I when I bought it the rubber mounts were falling apart so I threw them away. Never really needed them until now because when I put them on, it leaves a small space between the roof and the tower, which the rubber mounts would fill perfectly. There are rubber mounts lettered from 'A' to 'F' and I don't know what the difference is between them all.

Is this for an e30? If it is I don't believe those will work.

I have a q tower yakima rack with q30 clips. The only thing missing are those rubber mounts that go under the towers. There are about 7 different types of rubber mounts. Any idea which ones I need? Or will I have to call Yakima?

A fairing?

This obviously^

Or.... Have it so you have matching bike racks instead of two different ones, considering the passenger side one is larger than the basic rail you have on the drivers side

A fairing?

I hate the fact that my rack is now missing a fairing.
Everything looks very disproportionate to me now.
Any suggestions on how to correct the look?

bike rack

Heres my bike rack that I recently got it.

Found some wood on the side of the road for my fire place.

Looks really good but I would just pay close attention to those feet. They seem to be cut and folded steel so I could see it becoming loose over time or fail once a decent amount of weight or even a bike on there with decent wind could cripple it.

Otherwise Thumbs up!!!!

thanks guys, I'm really happy with it. Now it's time to figure out a fairing situation and get some endcaps for the crossbars.

Of course the day I finish/install it, it proceeds to pour rain for 48 hours, so I guess the wood is really being put to the test haha. So far it's held up just fine.
