I have always thought they looked okay but I would never use one. My '71 had one but it was pretty rusty so I took it off and filled the holes.

sorry, gotta vote no... just never liked them, hard to clean and unless you get a Stainless Steel one, they rust ...

Did they come from the factory with them or is it an aftermarket product

Think they were dealer installed.
Mine's stainless-I use it alot. A bag of bungee cords
and you're good to go.

I had my rusty rack powered coated Candy Apple Red to match my car. Just wanted to be different. But if and when i repaint my car i will remove it and fill in the holes...........I never use it and its hard to clean under it.....PS: Who ever installed my rack put it on unside down...so when i went to re-install it after having it powered coated i was going to put it on the correct way but the holes did not match up so had to put it back on up side down....Only a few guys have commented that its up side down. Maybe everyone else just don't want to hurt my feelings.

I like the look, kinda like the rack on my Harley's tourpak.

I think it adds some bling and it seems to look better on a vert
