Template I made for the 2-door roof racks. I made it come down more beyond the pad of the racks to the door/windows to protect the paint.

Attachments show how they look on the car w the template and final install.

Defintely measure out and trim as needed. Cheers

Awesome - thanks for template! Is the template just for the rubber base? (does not extend to the metal bracket)

I ended up going w oem for the 2-door - can upload the self-made template for the base soon. I did extend it to the door frame, so feel free to trim as needed.

Template extends for the metal bracket.

So after having racks installed for the last 5-6 years, without ever taking them off in that time, this is how it turned out.
Pretty gross. And a bit of paint haze...
