Good fairing. Had to modify install.

"Fairing went on great to my Volvo S40, once I reversed the recommended setting of the attachment mechanism. The recommended settings clearly had the outer supports be longer than the inner ones causing the fairing to warp awkwardly when mounted (fairing wanted to be concave). I reversed the directions and had the outer attachments be shorter than the two inner ones making a slight convex shape that fit the car..." Read Full Review »

Got an open-box product.

"Great popduct and works as promised. The sound level is noticeably quieter. The 52 fits Chev Tahoe just right and the PRODUCT gets 5 STARS. However, I received a fairing that had obviously been sold, installed, and then returned. The parts were bent/worn with blemishes to the fairing itself. The product was useable and I chose not to deal with a return. I should have gotten an open-box discount...." Read Full Review »

"I bought the Thule fairing, and it has done exactly what it said it would -- it completely took away the annoying whine from my roof-top rack. Not sure if it has added anything in terms of fuel efficiency, but I was mostly looking for blissful silence. The one thing that I would say is that it looks …"  Read Full Review »

"The instructions could use some improvement, but if you read through all the steps, it's really quite simple to install. Very rugged (not sure why the fact that it's made of plastic is such a big deal to some people). :)



Once it was installed, I took the car out on the highway. At 70 miles per ho …"  Read Full Review »

"The lady at the store thought it would be a good idea to buy this to reduce road noise. I ignored her thinking it would be fine. I was wrong, a loud whistling noise happened if I drove faster than 25MPH. Adding the fairing made the noise disappear.The fairing comes in an easy to assemble kit. Pay at …"  Read Full Review »
