Title: FC roof rack??
Post by: FlikstRR on April 05, 2009, 02:55:01 PM
yea yea yea..

I lead the way in car styling! :Giggle:Giggle

I need a roof rack.. the rx7 fc can only hold 4 alloys with tyres on TOPS as all my alloys are 9j wide and have tyres on. Not to mention my awesome rollcage taking alot of space.


soooo..

short of fitting a towing bar and pulling a box trailer, I have 2 other options.. ratchet strap tyres to the roof, rear hatch OOR get/source a roof rack...


so any ideas?
how? where? cost?

cheers
phil

I do remember some one finding a roof rack supplier - but it was about 4 years ago?  Do a search in the 2nd gen section - you might find it :)

You could also get a rack manufactured for the tailgate, another option maybe? Seen it done on other cars.

better still use a rotary pickup to tow the FC on the rear,you could have the pickup in a nice contrasting colour, say................lambo orange for instance!!!  just a thought. lol
