This is a nice shot Jonas. Love the curves.
Where can I get one of those blue trees?

Great pic, but yeah there are no less than forty vagabonds taking shelter in that wheel gap.
Looks fresh Portland Tim. Do you get confused looks from other FX drivers with that stance?
Thank you, Wayne. I love the railless look. I'm in talks with somebody to 3d scan the holes from the roof rails to make some nice plastic plugs.Aggressive look, I like it, also looks good with the rails removed.
I don't think it's a good idea. The roof is not flat especially in the back and the holes are not a perfect rectangle shape. I think for a better fit and for better sealing i should 3d scan the holes and 3d print the plugs.3d scan the holes?? They're probably standard sizes for metric fasteners. Why not just measure them manually?

Thank you for sugestions but i wil have to see first how much $ is the scanning and then i will decide. IMHO i would choose this route for an extra precaution. Remember that those holes are right above the headliner and the water would get very quick into the car. And i would pay extra just to stay relaxed and not worry.Scanning will help with some aspects but will likely also cause additional unnecessary work. I wouldn't pay for the scanning, but if it's free . . .
If I were doing it, I'd use a simple design with best guess of the roof curvature and a material that is flexible enough to make up any gap and seal tight and accurate.
Fun idea though. I'd love to see more.

That is my "field of expertise". I'm more than happy to help with suggestions and questions.
