I have the Q-bar system and I drove around with just the bars on for a couple of days before my fairing came in and it was noisy at any speed of 30mph. After I put the fairing on sweet sweet silence.

Only problem I found is that you can not install this fairing on just any crossbar. I had to order a yakima crossbar just to install this fairing. Other than that it looks cool.

instead of taking the crossbars off every time you aren't using them, use this and keep noise down.

Heads up...this fairing only mounts to round crossbars. It's a small detail I overlooked, but since all the roof racks are universal I just assumed the fairing would be too. When I emailed Yakima for a suggestion, their customer service rep "captain obvious" told me they only mount to yakima round crossbars...thanks for clearing that up! but I need solutions, not facts.

Looks great and reduces noise while driving. Some vehicles benefit from the faring more than others. It also provides a seamless look between rack and vehicle and gives you a great place to plaster stickers, if that's your thing.

Wait! I don't have to yell to my passengers anymore? I don't have to take my crossrails off every time I'm going out of town and don't need my kayak or snowboard? What a difference one piece of plastic makes in the grand scheme of things. At 35mph my rack used to howl like a dog at the moon and now even at 70mph it's quiet. Only concern is the rubber guards against the paint because I don't see those clear guards you put on the paint lasting long - especially the first time I go to buff my car.

I am not going to lie, after I got this I really did not notice much of a difference at all in noise reduction. Maybe my suby just doesn't have a lot of forced or displaced draft over the canopy. Now that I have one I would not have a rack with out it; Aesthetics aren't everything but it sure makes my suby look sexy.

They look sweet and they reduced the noise while driving on the highway. The only problem is that I need to arrange my kayak holders alittle differently to avoid the fairings mounts.

I was a bit skeptical at first, but I got a great price on it from Backcountry so I purchased it. WOW! What a difference! I installed it on a 2007 Mazda 3 (Hatchback). Easy to install, but make sure you run a "test" install first to make sure you know exactly were everything is going. Once you push in the push screws they will NOT come back out and Yakima doesn't give you any extras. I have a sun roof that slides back and tilts up. I can no longer slide it back, but I can still tilt it.

Shhh... Yakima

I'm looking to get a 50" Yakima fairing .. Do I need to get a Yakima roof rack as well for it to fit or can I install the fairing onto my factory roof rack (2008 Subaru Impreza)?

I got this because the rack over the cab of my truck made a ton of noise. After I go the fairing it cut the wind down by at least half. If you are having this problem then definitly get this product

This fairing makes the rack look tons better while saving gas milage. I drove around for months without one and it made a world of difference with taking away the noise. If you have a car rack, you will need to get one of these!

These fairings are not designed to be used on square bars.

Thule makes fairings that are intended for use with square bars. You may want to try those.
