I would like to install a pair of aero style roof racks on a new 4 door Mazda 3 model. Black or silver is optional. I understand the vehicle has factory mounting points for the hardware. Please recommend parts, Specifications and cost. Thanks in advance

For your 2018 Mazda 3 I highly recommend the Yakima JetStream Roof Rack. This system consists of the two 50 inch JetStream Crossbars in Black Aluminum # Y00425 , the SkyLine Towers # Y53TR, and the Landing Pad # Y00248.
The Landing Pads and Towers for this system are made to mount directly to those factory points you mentioned on your 4-Door Mazda 3 and its low-profile design will provide a sleek appearance along with contributing to an extremely quiet ride. It has a weight capacity of 165 pounds.
I have attached an image that a happy customer sent in of this roof rack on his 2016 Mazda 3 (along with a kayak carrier) just so you can get a better idea as to what this will look like on your vehicle. I have also attached a short video demonstration so you can see exactly how it installs. All of the pricing information will be listed on the product pages.
