    Looks like I forgot to order the 3/4" hole punch in time for Amazon Prime to get it to me this weekend. Any other alternatives you guys can think of to punch through the weatherstripping for a nice clean look?

    Built the rack, measuresd for square and had a friend help with the hoist.

    I don't see why you couldn't build it in place on the roof, but it would be a PITA trying not to scratch any paint.

    No issue with paint scratching ,ran some tape down both weather strip panels and laid a thick beach towel down across the roof for assembly.

    I did built it on top and at night after I figured out I didn't have help. not too fun but it's held well.

    Also I didn't replace the weatherstripping. only really tall people would notice.

    Had to run some wires for my lights recently.

    Anyone else get 6 x black crossbars and 1 x Bare aluminum?

    I was expecting all to be black powder coated. I’ll probably just use the bare cross bar for the wind deflector mount.

    Right? Haha. I'll be fine as long as I can't see the bare cross bar behind the deflector, otherwise it'll drive me crazy.

    All the pictures I've seen recently were black across the board. On to the install!!

    Im defiantly not crazy haha. I did a fair amount of research when the flash sale popped up, and never saw anything but black. Maybe the clear one is a new addition for some reason..
