The prices are not too bad - considered that the products are fantastic - total $439.00. I got them installed by a professional free of charge. Pictures below
This is the close up of the Rhino Racks ($239.00) and the Thule ProRide 591 ($200) Going sporty style!

Thanks for posting up fella. They look the business. Like the Silver too.
I see Ford want over $500 for their bars, so you got away pretty cheap in comparison. http://www.ford.com.au/servlet/Conte...=1137384343020

I did much researching, at first - I was considering to find a good strap on bike rack for the rear door, but due to my dismay, my car has a rather large spoiler, and it wouldn't be worth the risk to find it was waste of time that the item wouldn't fit. So I reconsidered the roof racks, and they are the best option for my bike AND my snowboard in 2011 - will purchase the snowboard holders later on. Again, the roof racks comes handy, so thats how I decided to find the best product at a reasonable price.
