I've had my SSO rack for about 2 months now and overall I'm quite happy with it. I ordered the extra rails and everything on mine is black - crossbars, hardware, etc. The grinding could have been better in some places on the frame pieces; quite sharp if you aren't careful when grabbing on. I have also found it difficult to get additional hardware that's compatible with their crossbars, but I've ordered the rotopax mount, eyebolts and extra hardware SSO sells to solve that issue. You just can't find these pieces at your local hardware store. I do have some additional wind noise now vs. the stock rack with 2 crossbars. But I think that's probably the case with any full-length roof rack. I really like how low profile the SSO is. Overall, I'm very happy with the SSO. So far, I have an ARB awning on the driver side, a solar panel on the rear, with 1 3-gallon Rotopax and a Pelican in front of that. Working on how to mount the FrontRunner camp table at the front. I do sometimes wish I got the FrontRunner Slimline and could mount the camp table below the rack, but the SSO rack looks much better in my opinion. One possible improvement SSO could make would be to route out the ends of the crossbars like FrontRunner does so that you could add/remove connectors without having to remove the crossbar one side. I have also found SSO's customer service to be great. Overall, I would definitely recommend the SSO rack.
