So, I'm about to buy my 2016 cx5 and I'm debating whether to have them install OEM roof rails and/or cross bars. At $350 for installed roof rails and $125 for cross bars, its a bit pricier than some of the aftermarket systems out there. I'm also seeing the whispbar and aero systems which seem to offer even lower drag but it may be negligible vs these OEM bars. The joy of installing these aftermarket systems is another consideration.
Has anyone out there added ski racks on their OEM crossbars or roof rails? Recommendations one way or the other?
Or should I just go naked and buy a system that clamps onto the frame? The newer systems don't look too bad and it might be cheaper overall.
