Jan 24, 2014Reduces Wind Noise!The fairing works as advertised. It definitely reduces wind noise and makes driving a little quieter.

Jan 9, 2014FairingI bought this fairing to cut the noise from the square bars and it works perfectly. The fairing mounts easily and once adjusted to fit lays nicely on the roof of my Volvo XC70.

Read More Purchased this to reduce wind noise from my roof rack, which it definitely does. You can still hear a little bit of a whirring sound at 70+ mph, but honestly you wouldn't notice it if you weren't listening for it. Product works and looks great. My only complaint is that the construction seems a bit flimsy. I thought it was going to be a thicker, harder piece of plastic, but this is kind of thin and flexible. I'm not sure if that helps with the airflow or something, but it wasn't what I was expecting. Also, the instructions are a joke, which seems to be a common trend with Thule products. Overall, I'm happy with this product and I'm glad I chose this over the Yakima rack and fairing because you don't have to uninstall this fairing should you want to use a cargo box, haul kayaks, etc. -

Read More This thing is took longer to install then the rest of the rack. Some of the steps could have been done during manufacturing so it's not clear why they dumped it on the consumer. It did cut down wind noise though. It does allow you to use the fairing with a Thule cargo box which the Yakima does not. -

Read More Great add on to your Thule rack. And like the header says, it's not just for the looks and stickers! It actually serves a purpose. Purchased the base rack for my 2011 Hyundai Elantra and the afternoon I received it I ran out of time while installing the whole thing. At 35-40 MPH my rack sounded like it was making a small tornado on my roof... uh oh! Came home that night and put on my fairing... PROBLEM SOLVED 100%. Had no idea anything was even on my roof! May be just a tad bit shorter than I would like but the next size up would probably be too long... not a biggy at all. Still looks and works great. -
Jun 22, 2012It solved the problemAfter installing the roof racks, there was a loud noise from wind. After applying this device, the noise was eliminated. Gas mileage was also improved.
