Does any one have a roof rack? (or can recommend one)

I'm trying to find a direct fit roof rack for ls430 that can carry a kayak. Something that will not scratch or damage the car. Would be even better if someone has pictures or fitment too.

Something just doesn't sound right about a roof rack and kayak on an ls430.

Buy a beater subaru for bike and kayak adventures lol.

Like to see a roof rack with kayaks and hitch pulling a small boat.

I'd love to get a kayak and take my ls430 to the lake. I can't believe no one makes a roof rack for these things! I'd buy one today!

Yakima makes a roof rack system for the LS. You need the Q Tower system with Q75 clips.

Go to amazon, there are lots of universal fit roof rack / cross members. Then you attach the U brackets to that that kayaks sit on. But Yakima stuff is like 2x or 3x in price usually. Just look for most popular on Amazon and work from there.
