Photo Shop roof rack

Can anyone put this roof rack or anyone like it on my FBP FA5?

Here is my ride



And the roof rack. I think the owner is on the Ocho, sorry if it bugs you that I'm using your car



Really any kind of roof rack will do, just trying to get a feel of what It would look like

Thanks in advance

This guy has a Fiji FA5 with a roof rack. Might not be what your looking for but it gives you an idea.

Good find, but I was more interested in what it looks like without anything actually on the roof rack, because I would probably leave it on most of the time

Wrong...I have one for my FG2, and it didn't eat the paint. Don't pass on BS information if you don't know what you're talking about. The factory Yakima feet do a good job, but I noticed a small scratch or two, which were most likely from me moving the rack around into place.

Just to be extra safe, I put some extra rubber padding under the rubber feet that come with the roof rack, no problems since.

OP, I leave the rack on my car for 98% of the summer and kind of like how it looks and think it would look even better on an FA5 because the roof line on the FG2 is so short, it causes the tray to slant up towards the back. They should lie flatter on the FA5.
