    Fuzzy,

    A fairing on the ol' roof rack would be great, but I don't think that Yakima sells the horizontal mounts for our cross bars anymore. I'm sure I might be able to fabricate something out of metal or plastic strapping if I had to. Are you going to go to Moab so I can get a closer look at your set up?

    Unfortunately not. Foot surgery this summer will dramatically limit my mobility. Sigh.

    Same here, reversed the logo, installed the brackets under the roof rail. It was very easy

    Pictures uploaded of my VERY HUMBLE install. Yup, it's dirty and I had never removed the film, but it looks like I'll need to do that before next season.

    No need to flip my fairing. The Thule logo faded off anyways, heh. There is barely a whisper of it's ghosting visible anymore.

    It;s lasted me a good, what.... 4-5 years now? Still strong.
