whoa nice deal. I can see where the PO had a roof rack on my car. I cannot get the marks to come off though :(

That was my Texas find from last month. I thanked him perfusely, as he gave me some old photos from the time to that were autographed. A Bernard Hinault pic from the time and a Lemond was in it with him.

I saw an e28 M5 driving down the road the other day with a thule roof rack on it. Was pretty dang retarded. :evil:

[M-technik-3]

You try stuff three bikes and your budds in your car wthout a rack of some sort. Not retarded just practicle, just take off when not in use for gas mileage.

:up:
I love the look of my e30 with a bike on the roofrack or ski's in the ski rack. Throw in the mudflaps and some killer snows and she's a beast. :twisted:

Coors Classic?!?! Old school, man! :up: I still have some stuff I picked up during my racing days - banners, water bottles, shirts, etc.

Post some pics if you can.

I think they look really cool. I saw a black rack on a black e30 once. It looked sweet.
Greg,
Did yours come with the 'wind deflector' that goes on the front that says 'yakima'?

[M-technik-3]

No but I think I'll get one for it. Boy is it simply to assemble. Thule is not, props to Yakima.

[franz]

Is it rain gutter mounted? those are better because they don't sit on the paint (except in the rain gutter. I prefer Thule because the rack sits considerably lower than the yakima rain gutter mount towers.

[M-technik-3]

Rain gutter mount, I was tired of thule racks and the price was right. I have 2 Thule racks at present time both for my VW's but I need to sell the the one for the Scirocco due to sold it.

Take good care of the Yakima rack or it won't last more than one season. I work at a shop that specializes in Thule and Yakima racks and at least once a week I'm cutting bolts off of a Yakima bike tray or ski rack. Get some stainless hardware to replace the Yakima crap if you can. Sounds like a great deal that you got, though.

Thule over Yakima.

I may consider buying a rack this summer at work, considering I get it for a little less than wholesale! Thule may be a little harder to fit, but it is still easy. Of course, I have installed countless numbers of racks on customers' cars.

I do need a place to put my bike after a ride, but then all the mud and sand will fall on my roof!

[M-technik-3]

So you goto the car wash on the way home and spray down your bike, and car.

I have a Thule on my old car which my sister nw drives. Good stuff, I ike 'em more than Yakima. I'm considering moving to my car this summer but probably not.
