    Man my car was shaking on the interstate doing 80 with the rack on. Not aerodynamic at all.
    And anything over 40 with the sunroof open feels and sounds like shit on the car.
    I think its all about the fairing adjustment...

    It's actually not too bad if you pop the roof up... Sorta acts like a fairing.

    Me empyting my storage unit - couldn't fit it my car with boxes in there! Hahaha...

    I left it on for a while after that too...looks so cool! (not with the huge pieces of wood...just the bars - wood looks retarded lol) But, I like it off cause than the door gaskets don't have to bake in the sun while squeezing around the mounting arms.

    I got a set sitting in the closet for a year now, never have use for them, but are the hottest thing to have. Found at the junk yard, with 2 keys for it sitting on passengers floor. Paid guy $20 and drove home grinning like an idiot with antlers on top.

    fuck, its funny you mention that. i bought mine then filled up and drove home about 150 miles. my OBC says i'm down 1 full mpg. i thought it was just the ethanol and lower fuel grade i've been putting in my tank.

    sucks.

    Tire shine is for people that don't rub as much as I do. Even though I don't rub anymore with the fenders pulled. ;)

    Yeah it curves down slightly. I just threw it up there real quick.

    Your car is still hot regardless, and I hope you put it to use.
