Roof Rack

Post by Grundel76 » Wed Mar 10, 2021 12:20 am

I’m trying to source a flush roof rack for my RS6. Meaning, not unsightly overhanging bars. Thinking about the Thule Wingbar Edge Flush but they don’t carry it in the states.

What’s a reputable online roof rack distributor in the UK?

Roofracks.co.uk?

I’ve always used the roof box company. They’re really helpful and reply to emails very promptly.

I prefer the cleaner look of the flush bars.

Unfortunately, roofbox.co.uk mentioned something about no shipping outside of the UK due to Brexit.

Anyone else have better ideas?

Do the bars marked the finish on roof rails?

Mine are brushed aluminium and haven’t marked.

Not a C8, but this is the Thule Vector 430L on wing bar edge roof rack.

Got it from roof-bars.co.uk. Fantastic customer services.
