Hey guys, Summer's here and I'm taking a few surf lessons in Huntington Beach. surfing's been a fun thing and I want to get better.. problem is, Surf board doesn't fit on the Evo X. I can't borrow my father's SUV all the time.

being in college, I really can't afford another DD.. so I'm thinking of putting a rack on the Evo.

saw this on a lancer.. I honestly don't like it at all.. trying to find something smaller. Anyone have any suggestions?


I'm looking at the Yakima Products and this seem to be one of the smaller ones..

the controversy I'm starting to mod the Evo too... a fixed up Evo + Rack just doesn't look right

 

I don't see anything wrong with a sick, fast Evo that has a surf or snow rack on it. It's pretty much the action sports car. I'm looking at the Yakima racks myself for the surfboards and snowboard.

 

ive always liked the look of a rack like that on top of a modded car. dooo itttt.

 

it looks good, and for the cause Surfing its well worth it

Hunighton beach i think i have seen your evo around El Segundo and hermosa beach, i go out there once in a while for business,,, maybe it was not u

 

Its to big. A lil low key would be cool, thats to big

 

Which rack are i looking at? The 70$ one I posted? their price on different ones are quite different. This one seems like for surf boards, but not sure how it holds. it looks like it's just tucked under the belt

 

ya I'm looking for a smaller simpler one. like this

 

do it! it looks like the thule and the yakima would be about the same if you took the snowboard fittings off the thule. either way i say go for it and post pics of your board on top when you do it.

 

The rack is easy enough to remove, so I wouldn't worry how it looks.

 

Go for the JDM Mitsubishi rack.

just use soft racks! they work great and you can take them off and on when ever you please! fcs makes a good set check it out! just make sure you put something under your board so the wax dosent get all over the roof of your car!

 

thanks guys, I'll check it out and order one soon.

thanks!!! is there a translation button on there or am I going to need someone Japanese?

 

Nope, I'm afraid I can't help you there. The 70 part is the base rack, and the 12 is the kayak holder (don't know if it would work for the surfboard). I do like the fact that you can use a roof rack on these (since I couldn't on my 05 MR).

 

Is this the one you are talking about? It looks like there could be some serious rubbing against the paint.. specially with little sand pebbles

 

yeah those r the ones, and no they shouldn't scratch your paint there mostly made of soft cloth except for the strap part so just make sure when your driving the straps are secured and not flapping around!
