Someone on NEMINI.org recently posted that they saw one of these on a highway in NJ, with "vehicle maufacturer" plates...

nobody thinks a roof rack like that would be cool? mount a spare and two driving lights on it? maybe i should go find a custom fabricator for it. how strong are the roof gutters? i was looking at them today and they seem to be plastic, dunno if they're strong enough to mount a rack to

I want one to! It could be a bit shorter than the photo and hold one spare. I like the light kit on the front idea also. A real Monte Carlo rally look!

I'm pretty sure that it uses the same holes as the factory rack so there is already nuts build into the roof for it. You just have to drill through the outer skin. Not that, that's not scary as hell. But there are templates for the hole locations so it is doable.
