Just curious, are you doing this for "the look"? Or is there a functional use for the rack and or the extension?

Yeah for right now I use it for moving wheels/car parts and other things for my buddies, comes in handy on long trips but in the future there will be a spare up there, 2 flat gas cans and maybe some other overlanding goodies

Nice! What I was getting at was if there was a functional use for the extension, I'd go with it. If you wanted a particular look then that'd be up to you. Either way... bad ass looking Expy

short roof rack = shopping trip to ace hardware to get some cans of paint
Long roof rack = trip across africa coast to coast

Dont know if you get the picture but long roof rack gives a more rugged outdoorsy kind of look

If it was my truck, I'd figure out a way to extend the factory luggage rack rails all the way forward to the a-pillar. Then I'd paint them grey. In my opinion thats the only way a front to back basket would look right. Seems like one rail could be cut in half to achieve this.

Sincerely, the guy with the factory luggage rack rail delete

Ha, that is a genuinely good idea, I see factory luggage racks at the junkyards all the time maybe I could cut them and graft them together
