OEM Base Carriers w/ Modded 44" Thule fairing and Thule Bike Carrier.

The only problem is $40,000 car with a $300 bike. I have a $26,000 car and a $2,200 bike, priorities.

So because I spent 35k on a car and own a $300 bike I seem to have my priorities off? So according to your standards, I need to drop 3 stacks on a bicycle to MATCH my $35k car. Seems like your priorities should really concern your owns ? [emoji53]

1st.. I love my car, it's a daily. I'm glad I own it.

2nd.. I surf more then bike. At the same time I like to go for frequent bike rides just cause I like to. Am I a hardcore cyclist? Of course not. Do I feel the need to buy a $2k bike if I'm barely going to use it ?

Finally.. congrats on your $20k car and $2k bicycle, I mean if that's what your into. But to bash on another's man lifestyle because he's not up to your life style seeeeeems pretty low. But to each their own.

I rather spend the 2k on my college courses. But [emoji482]

Hoping to get a kayak soon to get more use out of it, I run it naked most of the time

Any recommendations on OEM rack vs Thule/Yakima? Thinking about dropping some of $500 dealer card on the VW rack.

OEM Rood Rack /w Kuat Trio rails

This setup works really well for my bikes, and pretty aero too

My personal opinion.. VW Racks looks better. But that's just my opinion:

This might be a really stupid question, but do roof racks need any sort of permanent faster? Screws, bolts, clips that will scratch paint etc

Well, YES. If cycling is not your number one priority than you are wrong.

I have the same question...can the rack be removed easily when not in use without damaging the paint? I don't need a rack very often and don't want to have the rack installed 99% of the time.
