I do have an option for you but as of (April 2018) we do not have any custom fit roof racks confirmed to fit your 2018 BMW X3. Therefore, in order to use a roof basket you will want to use a universal roof rack like the SeaSucker Monkey Bars Roof Rack part # 298-SX6000B which mounts to the roof via vacuum cups and will not require any modifications to the vehicle. Then for a roof basket I recommend the Thule Canyon XT Roof Cargo Basket part # TH859XT. The Thule Canyon has a built-in fairing to reduce wind noise and drag. You can also add an extension if you need more space with part # TH8591XT.
I have attached a review of the above roof basket for you as well.
