Geez that barwork looks nice and tidy. They can keep their ARB sticker but the white colour matched gear comes up very nicely. Acres of roof space too. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Very nice mate!! Coming along awesome! Reckon when you have a minute you could measure from your roof to the underside of your roof rack? I want to see how this would work with my roof rack on my canopy that over hangs my roof. Thanks!

I haven't got any yet but I have had the thought of doing what you have for big trips and carrying extra items so as it all isn't on the canopy roof.
Thanks for that mate, I'll have to have a measure up!

Dunga, if you put some sheet metal or ply or something solid over the mesh at the front of the rack it might quiet the rack down a bit
