Is it a whitewater? I would love to carry my 8 ft kayak, but im afraid of the plastic bumpers breaking with the front and rear straps... I'd need rails.

Now you need to make a front hook.

It is. I need a rack too. I cut styrofoam blocks to fit the shape of the kayak edges so it sits off of the roof.

If the rear one goes well, we'll make a matching one for the front. Why not?

We need someone creative like you.

Helps to make the Yaris unique.

The material alone from the front one makes it worth buying...its not expensive new
