    I hear you about the Roof Racks on a sports car.... but I love surfing possibly as much as I love my Golf R...So its a compromise.
    Besides I can't fit my boards in my wife's convertible!
    In my garage: Golf R20 Rising Blue, 5dr, 6sp man, Leather, Sunroof, Sat Nav, Bluetooth, DynAudio, MDI & Roof Racks for my board!

    Just make sure you take your camera as well so the rest of us can see the car posing at the beach

    Simply briliant, now I can open my Sunroof without the annoying wind vibration. They are truly whisper quiet and Roof Carrier Systems even offered to trade-in my freebie VW racks for $90.
    I'm thrilled, off to catch a wave!
    Thanks mate. Those 2nd pair look like the Thule Aero bars. One of the great things about Thule is that their racks are modular, so when you change cars, unless it's incredible different style/sizes, you often only need to replace parts (such as the feet) and not the entire racks!

    They don't look too bad. Thanks for posting the pictures mate was wondering what the car would look like with roof racks on. Very tempting, I just worry that they may mark.

    I ended up being boring and just getting the Bluetooth, MDI, hard boot liner and weather shields though the 18" Vancouver's that are on it are nicer then I thought that they would be.

    I also have the Whispbar racks, though I got mine for 275 with the feet (Trade helps!!!) The rear looks a bit too far back according to the instructions. Can you check the distance between the inside of the 2 closest brackets (ie: inside edge of the rear plastic wing support on the front leg to the inside front of the rear wing support)
