There is a flat across the top of the fairing for a light bar. Pictures here.

I don't see any provision for mounting them to the side rails. So that would be it as far as I can tell.

Give Kevin a call and ask about that. He hinted that they may be producing something new in the future also. Theres a live chat feature on their website that he responds to as well.

yes they hinted at something like that in the future. but no provisions for a front mount light bar at the moment.
Unless you wanted to mount it above the rack itself and create extra drag.

can you take more pictures of the front leg assembly. I want to see how their no-drill front looks like. Thanks!

If this doesn’t have front feet and sits on the fairing that’s not good.

My Yakima fairing after 2 years wore some rub marks into my roof

It is a pressure fitting, but it also includes front supports with rubber feet. We also will be including the necessary silicone, clear vinyl to remove any chance of messing up the factory paint at the wind fairing, and 4 eye nuts with carriage bolts to use your rack immediately. The wind fairing also comes with an edge trim and soft rubber bulb to remove chances of rubbing issues.

Got pictures this morning. I'm still too sick and it's too cold out in current condition to mount mine. But it looks like the pictures of the fairing at the website are of a prototype with tack welds. The actual fairing as sent to me is 1/4" flat aluminum bent with a brake (same thickness as side rails). And it looks plenty strong enough to support a light bar. You would need to drill holes for the end brackets. I would have no issues even mounting my hi-lift jack on that flat. Apologies for the picture quality but it is clear enough to see what I am describing.

Really like the looks of this. I've been super impressed with my SSO sliders... Might need to consider this as my rack solution.

I can't find anything about the weight limits. Any idea what they would be? It mentions a rooftop tent so I'm assuming it will have a significant capacity?

They say 90lbs per cross rail static.
8 rails standard = 720lbs

And of course if you have no sunroof you can add 2 more cross rails to fill the gap.

Got mine 90% installed Tuesday. Unfortunately no pictures yet. For anybody who is wondering you need 80/20 Inc Series 10 hardware for this to fit hold downs in the slots. I have a bag of parts ordered and I will confirm fit sometime next week. The extrusion profiles are 1030 for the 1x3" bars and 1020 for the 1x2" bar that fits over the shark fin. The pictures below is what some of the nut inserts look like, Mine will be threaded in 1/4"x20. These are metric ones we had at work that did not fit.

After you are able to confirm fit can you post a link to what you ordered here? Is this stainless hardware?
