New Custom Roof Rack(In progress)!!!
Hey Everyone,
Just thought I'd share some of the pics I have of my roof rack I'm getting made by my buddy. I have been wandering the forum here ever since getting the "3" last year and have loved the look of the 3's w/ a roof rack. As we all know the storage space for cargo is limited in our rig's and with limited space comes a limited budget. With the Gobi's topping the charts at $1-1,500(used-new) and the other "off brands" not looking to sturdy at highway speeds I went on the search for good racks w/ a useable design... no pun intended
. I finally made friends w/ a guy who recently opened a fab shop near me. With him needing business and brave souls to trust their ride to him and me wanting a solid rack a friendship was born. All of this was done w/ measurements just once and he did it all off memory. He definately has exceeded my expectations. Here are some pics of the rack so far.. still needs mounting plates for lighting(front/rear), bedliner coating and possibly a floor piece of some sort. He is willing to make more w/ whatever you'd like on them/design-wise so PM me for details...
P.S- Just took a 600mi R/T vaca to see the family w/ it mounted and had no wind-noise at highway speeds
