    So I'm looking into the kc highlights or prinsu roof rack for my 16 pro. I've always liked the look of a rack but now I'm finding myself actually having a use for one. My truck is always used for our family trips so the extra space for kayaks or stand up paddle boards is becoming more necessary. im back and forth between the kc rack and the prinsu rack.
    I want low profile and easy to install. These seem to fit the bill. They need to be able to hold 2 kayaks or two SUP boards. Im not worried about lighting, I work for ORACLE lighting so I'm good to go there.
    Anybody have any experience with either one of these? Pros/cons?
    Thanks

    Good to know. How is the wind noise?

    I personally don’t have any wind noise, at least nothing that I can notice. I have the rubber trim piece so I can only assume that helps

    Do you happen to have any pics of it? There aren't to many around that i can find. Mainly looking to see the profile and how much it sits above the roof line. I want low profile and to hug the roof line of the truck.
    Thanks

    Hard to see, how does the rack contour to the roof line?

    I can take different angles if you had something specific in mind?
