Fairing Recommendation for a 2013 Hyundai Elantra Coupe and Rola Roof Rack

Question:

Hi! I own a 2013 Hyundai Elantra Coupe 2Dr. I am looking at purchasing the Rola Roof Rack GTX 59741. I am trying to purchase the best wind deflector now and I am comparing the thule airsceen 44inch 8702 or the rhino rack one. Can you be of any assistance?

I will be happy to help you to choose a fairing that will work with a Rola roof rack and your 2013 Hyundai Elantra coupe. I have always been a fan of the Rola roof racks like # 59741 and I think you will really like it. For a fairing that will complement the roof rack and that will fit well I recommend the Rhino-Rack 44 inch fairing # RRRF3.

I choose this fairing over the Thule AirScreen # TH82WV because the Rhino-Rack Vortex bars and the Rola aero bars have nearly identical dimensions. The Thule AirScreen on the other hand is primarily designed for Thule crossbars and would not be the best fit. Not to mention the Rhino-Rack model costs less! I have linked videos for both fairings for you.
