However the ikuram rack still slid and bounced while driving on smooth roads, and scratched not only my cross rails (I still don’t see how that happened) but completely scratched my paint to the metal at all of the attachment points while driving with the kayaks up there

The worst part, the bolts that secure the unit to the brace bars on the vehicle are too long and scratch the paint off of your car

As they rolled forward, the clamping screws scrapped the paint.

The bolts included are not the same ones pictured in the instructions, by the way, and it's very confusing as to which part goes where

n’t destroy the hood of my suv

n’t rust (or at least slow down the process).
