Smallbug that is awesome. I called them a few weeks ago and they said they would "add it to the list". I thought that meant months or years. Can you keep us posted please?

Oh crap. Just noticed you don't have as S. Is there a difference?

Edit: of course there is a difference, exhaust location. Darn.

What is the weight capacity of these roof racks ?
Anybody know ? I need something more than 150 lbs or so.

Hitch is finished and it does look great!

Yes, I do have a non-S which is why they couldn't use the hitch they already offer.
I can hold 100 pounds on it. The receiver size is 1.25 inch.

Can anyone with the Yakima roof rack confirm what # Q clips are needed to install the Q towers on a naked roof (F56).

Is Front & Rear the same?

I cut some 3M film to protect my paint. Works great and you can barely see it.

You have a link for that? I'm tired of using painters tape on mine.

Just search on Amazon for 3M protective film. There are all sorts of alternatives.

Can you adjust the distance between the rails, or are they fixed to one position?

Rear crossbar question
Did you have any problems getting the rear crossbar to seat right? I set my towers up at the spec M3 measurements (34 3/4) but the sliders won't seat properly on the towers, they keep coming up short on the slider marks almost like the towers are too far away from the clips. Very frustrating.
Thanks,
-Emily
