The Yakima WindFairer is a great addition to any roof rack system, helping to reduce wind noise and improve aerodynamics while driving. It’s easy to install and fits most crossbars, making it a convenient upgrade for those who frequently use roof-mounted cargo carriers, bike racks, or kayak mounts. The sleek design not only enhances the look of your vehicle but also helps with fuel efficiency by minimizing drag. Made from durable materials, it holds up well against the elements and provides a quieter, smoother ride. For anyone looking to cut down on wind noise and improve their roof rack setup, the Yakima WindFairer is a solid choice.

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.
