i recently have gotten into snowboarding and was looking into buying a roof rack to carry two around on and the only thing i can find is ones that mount to pre-existing factory roof racks which the evo doesnt have....does anyone know where to find some at for pretty cheap or anyone have one for sale that fits on our cars without a factory roof rack or scratching up the roof?? thanks in advance

yupp no problem, and id use a yakima set up the thules can be used on a gsr but not on an rs or mr so come time if you ever sell it the yakima should move a lot quicker, also its a ton eaisier to remove and install

I use Yakima! Great setup. Honestly I think the cheapest way to do it is go on craigslist and pick up q towers and crossbars. Some people sell them really cheap. Then just go to rei and get your vehicle specific clip and walahhh!
what are the vehicle clips for the evo viii's??? i know its a q but which one is it for the locking clips
