    Please post your Roof Rack & Bars. I am trying to decide which to go with and the OEM seem ridiculous tall while others look really cheap. I am not debating on using a rack at all but a few photos would help me decide. Thanks.

    Honestly, never paid attention much to the wind noise which probably means I am not bothered by it. Plus, I do not use it in the winter so it stored most of the time. I only put the bars on only when I needed. It is easy to put on/off by myself. To this point, I would say I've only used those bars 10% of the time. I will check for it the next time I use them.

    They are tall and make a bit of noise.
    Personally I would go Whispbar if I was purchasing them. Mine happen to come with the vehicle, but I would not spend money on the genuine.

    Yeah I notice the noise too when I'm on the highway, I just counter it by having my musik louder than the wind aha

    We have the Yakima round bars. They are VERY low and block the sunroof opening. I would get the Whispbars if doing it again.

    Just put the Audi cross bars on my 2017 Q7. They seem a little lower profile than the previous generation bars. They seem pretty quite as well.

    Just got my Surco safari rack from 4 wheel online. It is made of aluminum with black powdercoated finish. Sorry no pics but I will upload some once I'm done mounting it.

    I really like the look of that. The branded box and the colour coordination is lovely.

    That does look good.

    Sorry, bad question but is that an OEM box? How much was it?

    They look great but carry a heavy price tag

    Got it a the Audi dealer OEM. Cost about $1000 cdn (750usd). But after using the TDI goodwill package it was more affordable.
