Thule Fairings

Item #THU0063 | 119 in Stock
4 Star Rating

Fairing does what it's supposed to do.

By Ranked #1764 - Car Racks May 22, 2008

The gas mileage stuff other reviewers claim is kind of a joke. If there were equipment sensitive enough for regular joes to measure their gas mileage that accurately, we'd have these same people sealing their windows shut for eternity, passengers & baggage weighed and gas tanks minimally filled.
That said, the noise is gone. It was previously most notable with the windows closed as it likely caused the chassis to hum.
I will say, though, that I suspect that Thule's instructions for installation have an error: It instructs installers to use one location on the mounts for outer brackets and another for the inboard brackets. They were numbered 1 and 2 on the sheets. I remember that in order for the fairing to fit properly, I had to use the exact opposite locations respectively.
Otherwise it is a worthwhile option to install.
