The Forbidden Mk7 GTI Mod: Installing VW OEM Roof Rack 

Yeah you probably got some trips coming up! Thanks for watching!

I’ll look into it for sure! But yeah I like that too!

@@Russellscottx i know i got mine for 200, couldn't complain compared to thule or the others for out the door of about 700! looks good though!

The INNO wind deflector (fairing) is a lot less expensive and you can get it on Amazon new or used. Mine will be here on Sunday! Can’t wait and I love how the roof rack looks.

@@whtdragn yeah u can get it for about 90 bucks i looked into that before i got the thule one.l i like the thule fit and look more, but thats just me

Did you have to modify the thule wind fairing or the OEM roof rack?

We’ll see how it goes...maybe I’ll make a comparison video! Thanks for watching!

Thanks for watching and commenting! I was worried about that a little but we’ll see how it goes!!

@@Russellscottx I put a few squares of paint protect film under my posts it work perfect and you can barely see it when the rack is off.

Travis Burch autobahn is the ultimate sport trim!

i just wanted it to put a xmas tree that is lit up lmao

Thanks! They’re Konig rennforms!

what size of the rennforms>!

Definitely worth it if you can find a used set! I just couldn’t bring myself to spend close to $400 with shipping for a new pair!

Nope nothing yet! I don’t have a sunroof either, which I know that causes issues!

I have a sunroof on my 2019 SE and I have had the roof rack on for a month or so with no water leaking issues (and no issues opening/closing the sunroof)

Yezzir! Rennforms 18x8 +32

It just makes the doors a little harder to opedn

They’re still going strong, definitely do it!

Haha, sounds like enough encouragement to me, I think i'm gonna go for the same ones! I was gonna get the eibach pro kit, but fuck it. If I blow a strut I'll get some b8's

Thanks for the fast reply! haha

lol no problem, you’ll be disappointed with the pro kit...just send it haha

Ah since I commented I've gone back and forth as to what I should do, and I'm thinking I'll go with a set of BC Coils. I spent a lot of time in Mexico, at high speeds, along with occasional track, and I think proper coils fit me better. My car at 30k miles have an unknown strut history, and at that a questionable history. Previous owner wrecked the car, I rebuilt it. Shop that he took it to told me they took it back to stock from stage 2, and it was slammed on coils previously, and they got unknown miles used shocks to put back on it. I think I'd rather install coils myself too, it's much easier than disassembling unknown miles struts. Thank you so much man though, the quick reply and info helped!
