Havent fitted cross bars before because dont like the raised OE ones or similar.
Fitted these yesterday to my X5 .They were cut to size ,are made of aluminium and are available in silver or black.
No wind noise at all ,upto 100kph ,but some wind noise thereafter ,as expected from a cross bar.
Bought them from Ebay UK seller,very friendly and helpful.Posted via Fedex and he will also post to US!
