When i first installed my BajaRack I had some wind noise. When I installed the lights the wind noise completely went away. I like the rack sitting up off the roof a little bit. It can be easier to get underneath to attach bungees and I have to get under it to tighten and loosen my mounts. just a couple of thoughts. And dont skimp when fabbing your cross bars because there will come a time when you will want to stand up there.
