    I like where this is going.

    IMO, Axis OG San would look amazing! Haven't seen too many MK3's on 'Meshies' either.

    They are 'Pro-rack'. I got them from Supercheap, they did have to order in the mounting points for the MK3 but it only took a week or so. I managed to get them pretty cheap as i've got a mate who works there, but all up it shouldnt cost more than about $220ish for the everything you need, brand new.

    I'm also in the process of finding a roof fairing to suit, i'm unsure of whether to order a Thule in case they dont mount to the racks at all, but the generic/universal ones tend to look a little cheap.

    More info on the generic ones? I went to ARB and they had no idea what a fairing attachment was.

    That would be awesome! The bars are 32mm wide front to back. And 22mm tall, bottom to top. If you can find out if the Thule attachments will fit it'd be epic!

    I dont know of anything here in Australia but there are some that will come with universal fittings. Something like this one says it'll fit to almost all stock racks aswell as aftermarket kits, sto the fittings must be adjustable.
