F80/F82 Carbon Fiber Roof Rack DIY Install Video using OEM Bars

If you guys haven't already, read the threads by members Maltman and stilljester as they both have threads here that show their work.

Love tinkering with my car and decided to tackle this as well since we go to car shows a lot and would use the Cargo box to store some of our tents and other car show gear!

I created this Youtube video link to show how I did the holes. I created templates for each of the 4 blind holes and used a small drill bit and later a Dremel to make the holes perfectly round. My method allows some room for error since if you don't drill right over the bolt, you still have a chance to make it perfect by taking you time with the Dremel.

Be sure to tape off the area you are working in case you slip and work slowly. Questions feel free to ask and consider subscribing if the video helped!



thanks
