Thanks man! I have family in LA (but I much prefer SD 😂) so I make sure we make our way a little south every year when we go. Been going to Cafe Moto since 2019! Love it there
Man, i just got my overtrail today and as soon as got in the road at 60~70mph, I thought I had a window open, stopped to check them all, it’s so noisy ! I’m coming back tomorrow to remove it at the dealer, hope with only the bars it’s better… imagine 8 hours of road with that noise in your ears, geez
Oh man, bummer. I’m a couple weeks out from taking delivery of a Nori OT + with the roof rack. I was hoping it wouldn’t be too noticeable. I used to daily a lifted Wrangler with a full roof Rhino Rack and that combined with the tires and complete lack of aerodynamics, I could barely stand more than an hour on the hwy. Hope the GX isn’t that bad.
Yep, I can confirm. OEM racks generates the " rumbling" noise. Going to look into Westcott or Prinsu for the aftermarket version. Other than that, it's a great rig!
I thought the same thing, got to 60 mph and man that sucker is noisy, thought I left the back window unlatched. It was this dang roof rack! How can we remedy this noise problem? Lexus told me only thing is, take it off!
On a 5 hour trip in my wife's luxury+ right now and the road noise anywhere above 70ish is insane and driving everyone nuts (including my wife who knows I hate this car and is desperately trying not to say anything negative about it). Will be taking off the cross bars as soon as we get home to see if that helps.
Thanks for making this for the community 👏🏽 Btw, @NotWG how much does the OT roof rack cover the sunroof? Also, what’s your opinion on roof noise with the roof rack ?
Covers the sunroof about 4 or so inches maybe? Plenty of light still comes in. Wind noise is noticeable but not as bad as my brothers 2023 Tahoe with a roof rack
Nice combo. Me, 2017 ES daily, 2020 992 Friday/ Saturday toy. Rolex SS Daytona white dial, Seadweller, SS WG fluted bezel Datejust Jubilee white dial Roman
Have you considered the Prinsu roof rack, rear ladder or rear window accessory panel? So far they look like the only aftermarket products on the market.
@notwg thanks for the video. Question any concern about the open holes on the inside of the rails being exposed to weather/water with the rack off? Could water get inside the rail and just sit there ? Or are the holes drilled into a closed solid block inside the rail? If that makes sense.
I would love those but realistically the places I go on the east coast with this don’t require it. Lots of sand, snow, and some mud. Nothing really rocky around here!
Thanks for the video. Picked up my GX Yesterday. Have you noticed a large hit to your MPG with the rack on? Mine came already installed and I’m seeing a party 13mpg combined lol!
Took the rack off the day after I got it since that will only be used for long road trips for us! Fuel mileage isn’t great but I have seen it improve over time while the car “learns” my driving style a bit better
You can definitely unbolt it yourself as I have, but to get it off the car you need 2 people without scratching the car. Perhaps with a ladder you could attempt to do it yourself, but I wouldn’t bank on that myself! Try to find a buddy to help out!
Clears with about an inch! Need to upgrade my garage doors though - I have about 2 feet of room vertically until the brick opening… got a quote for 3 doors for $40k so that took a backseat haha

Very helpful video! Just got the 550 yesterday. Will be storing the roof rack today until I need it, to eliminate that extra noise. Thank you!
Dude, sweet cafe motto cap! Didn’t think someone on the other side of the country would know barrio Logan

You want to get aftermarket aerodynamic ones like from wescott design. Everyone says they’re super quiet. Check out!

@@NorthoftheWallGarage Awesome, thanks for the heads up - I'm expecting to get my Incognito OT+ with rock rails and roof rack in the next month!
@@Lincoln018 just got mine and I think it is way to noisy once you reach 60mph! On this site to see if I can find out how to remedy it.
Great video!! What is the height with the rack on top?
Nori Green Gx550 and Tudor BB58s
We share the same taste! 😅
Nice combo. Me, 2017 ES daily, 2020 992 Friday/ Saturday toy. Rolex SS Daytona white dial, Seadweller, SS WG fluted bezel Datejust Jubilee white dial Roman
@@jml9550 nice collection.
Something about 911s and Rolex … such a good pairing.
@@Superdada thx man. I will tell you one thing. I will say goodbye to the 992 before the Daytona, never gonna part with it. : )
Nori green look stunning. Is this overtrail or overtrail plus
Nice Tudor!
Thanks!! Enjoying the black bay 58 - it’s my daily!
@@NorthoftheWallGarage I was going to do the same! Love my BB 58
Can this roof rack be used to install rooftop tent too?
It seems the cross bars from Lexus are not rated to support rooftop tent.
Im still waiting to get my gx 550
Have you considered the Prinsu roof rack, rear ladder or rear window accessory panel? So far they look like the only aftermarket products on the market.
That might be a better option depending on our needs - good tip, I will check them out!
is there a fix to the hood wobble? over 60mph i experience a lot of hood movement which is odd for a 80k vehicle
I was wondering the same thing!
Curious how different the process is for a Premium Plus model? We have one on order and it comes from Lexus with the roof rack, which we don't need.
The green looks good … do you think the black looks good too ?
@notwg thanks for the video. Question any concern about the open holes on the inside of the rails being exposed to weather/water with the rack off? Could water get inside the rail and just sit there ? Or are the holes drilled into a closed solid block inside the rail? If that makes sense.
Can you get a Thule roof carrier on that style rack with the multiple cross bars?
Are you going to install optional skid plates and rock sliders?
I would love those but realistically the places I go on the east coast with this don’t require it. Lots of sand, snow, and some mud. Nothing really rocky around here!
Yeah but so noise. Im selling mines for 1/2 price
Thanks for the video. Picked up my GX Yesterday. Have you noticed a large hit to your MPG with the rack on? Mine came already installed and I’m seeing a party 13mpg combined lol!

@@NorthoftheWallGarage took mine off and i've seen a bit of improved mpg - averaging around 15, mostly city with some scattered highways.
Is it possible to remove the rock rails and install the Amp Research Powerstep XL running boards on the Overtrail?
Hi thanks for the video , i have the same exact build and wanted to know if i can get the rack off by myself as wifey is somewhat busy .

@@NorthoftheWallGarage thanks
Seems like a lot of work. Is it too tall the go into the garage with it left on?
Clears with about an inch! Need to upgrade my garage doors though - I have about 2 feet of room vertically until the brick opening… got a quote for 3 doors for $40k so that took a backseat haha
