I love the utility and look of the VW OEM roof racks on my VW MK7 GTI, but they added a fair amount of wind noise on highways. After evaluating a few brands, I decided to take a chance of Yakima 46" wind fairing - it was the size recommended by Yakima's manual.Installation was very straightforward - you basically run some straps through some openings and tighten them with the included wrench tool until they don't go anymore. The manual says you can optionally cut off any excess material, but I didn't feel like my extended too far so I left it as is. The kit also comes with some clear plastic patches to place on the roof of the car in case you hit a bump and the fairing makes contact.Overall, the installation only took a few mins of effort. I spent more time organizing the parts and visualizing than actual doing. No sweat!Some folks on VW message boards worry about the thickness of the OEM racks and 3rd party fairings, but as you can see from the photos, the Yakima wind fairing works fine and feels very secure.Wind noise has been reduced - I'm no longer conscious of it. Cosmetically, the wind fairing adds to the curb appeal of my car.I'm extremely happy with the purchase.

The assembly was really easy. It with on my bronco sport perfectly. I didnt use the plastic sticky circles, didn't want that on my car. I didn't think it was needed. Great fit, cancels noise. Seems good quality. Looks great too. Might put some stickers on mine

Fits nicely, Reduces wind noise by almost 75% at the speed of 60-90mph. Looks great after installing. Amazing build quality. Easy to install by 1 person. I have OEM VW roof rack.

This dresses up the roof rack but also reduces noise. I like the aesthetic that it brings to the overall look of my Model Y.

Typically I am more impressed with the build quality of Yakima products. This however is an extremely over priced pice of plastic w/ zip-ties. I was suspect of the mounting system as soon as I opened the box. A proprietary zip-ties system! Really!?! The entire bracket is just for support between the shield/faring and the bar you mount to. The only thing that hold the brackets to the bar are fancy zip-ties. My first thought was, providing these even allow for a secur installation, when the sun deteriorated the slim plastic ties they are inevitably going to crack and fail. So I could already see a need to replace those every 2-3 years. And how much do they gouge you for those? Well luckily the insufficiency’s of the design stopped before I got that far. On the third bracket the toes snapped with at least a 1/2†of slack remains to be tightened. Seeing as brand new out of the box a piece of hardware failed well before it had even reached the amount of stress neede to properly tension it I decided I wasn’t going to waste anymore time with this right there. Back in the box. No thank you. Hope this saves someone else the trouble.

Last year, I purchased a pair of Yakima aero bars for transporting my kayak on my pickup. The bars were much louder than I thought they'd be. This fairing really helped to reduce the noise, and it was easy to install.

The unit was easy to install. I had a problem with one of the custom tye wraps . It fell apart, I called the manufacturer with the number provided, they had the local Canadian rep call me, I described my problem, and the replacement part came within days.

Love the look of this deflector, installed no problem but like other reviews don't over tighten as it is plastic on plastic. Definitely reduced the wind noise.

Nice product, super easy install, fast shipping although I found it a bit small in height for my application with stock crossbars on a VW MK IV Wagon. A great product overall.
