Ok, So winter is coming up "Here already" and i need my car to hold a few boards and people and was wondering if there is any bike racks out there for the 240 that go on top of the car. Not behind it.. I tried searching but all i came up with is ones that go on the A** end of the car...

first question. Do anyone know if these even exist? Second question. Does anyone know where i can pick one of these up?

I know some of you dont care or dont live somewhere where it snows , but help me out here..

I've seen it. Those twin V shaped rails on the roof with straps and shiz.

My spoiler will tell why you don't secure one of those strap on bike racks to the gay factory nerf spoiler and especially not with 3 BMX bikes on it. lol. I got two chunks missing in my spoiler from when it broke off at 35mph. The rack got bent up and it fizzucked my buddies back wheel and rear gear.

Haha Our foam spoilers do suck!

there are definitely racks for a 240.

Yokota had a rack on his 180, look(s/ed) bomb.

im REALLY wanting one, but you cant have a rack and window visors at the same time.

no, the s14 is too rounded and big to pull off a bike rack, or any rack im sure.

and that seat is still way too low.

my seat's just a little lower than my handlebars, but im 6'3.

i have a thule, was expensive, but i had an employee discount back then & have heavily used my rack-heck-sometimes abused it to the extreme

i'm still thinking about rhino-lining my roof d/t the use i get from the roof rack...

if i had the chance to do it again, i'd go w/ Yakima system or the rare OEM version as seen on the following thread:

scroll down a bit to my fellow Jersean's grmreapr's post fo da pix, yo
