Cross Bars

Hello everyone, just wanted an opinion on putting cross bars on my 2010 RX 450h? I have read some people state that cause wind noise? However I think they look cool? Thoughts?

I think they are significantly overpriced. Perhaps the prices have come down since I researched them in late 2018. Maybe you can find a good deal somewhere online.

The OEMs don't produce a lot of wind noise, but I have the Thule AeroBlades with the rapid crosspacks and they do make some noise even with the sunroof shade closed. They do look good on the car though

Yes, they do produce wind howl. And they'll cut your gas mileage (maybe 1-2mpg, depending on how fast you drive). I put them on when I need them and take them off when I don't.

Try eBay first. Then Amazon, then the online discount Lexus parts dealers to see if they will export. The main ones are www.MyLparts.com and LexusPartsNow and Lexus South Atlanta Parts.
