So having successfully sourced a roofrack solution for the Coupe, here's a pic with the bikes on.

Makes the zed look like a toy!!! I'm guessing you're happy that the paintwork will be totally untouched?

It's a good question
I've done around 600 miles now with bikes on the roof and there is absolutely no marks to the paintwork at all. it might help that I have a big black sticker on the roof!

Yes good point ... Wrapped roof? How does it fix? I didn't know there were any fixing points?

It uses the fixing adaptors from a 1999 Impreza Saloon. It was the only car I've found that has no fixing points and frameless doors and a kit available.
