Today we'll be taking a look at the 44 inch long Rhino-Rack fairing, part number RRRF3. There's also multiple different sizes, starting with the 32-inch part number RRRF1, the 38-inch RRF2, and the 50-inch, RRRF4.Speaker 2: This fairing is going to help by deflecting the air around the vehicle, so it makes for a quieter ride when you're out on the road. This stylish design is going to help to enhance the look of the roof of your vehicle, as well as your roof rack. And when you get your fairing in your box and you pull it out, you're going to have this protective film that's going to be over the top, and you can pull this off if you so choose, or you can leave it on to protect against any kind of bugs or dings or dents on your fairing. And with the wind hitting this, you're going to see that it can bounce off the top of the vehicle, so there's going to be rubber bumpers here on the bottom to help protect the vehicle's finish. And all your tools and accessories for this that you're going to need, including your bolts, washers, clips, brackets, all that stuff will be included, including your Allen tool to fasten them and tighten them down. The Rhino-Rack fairing offers a limited lifetime warranty through the manufacturer. Now that we've gone over some features, let's show you how easy it is to install.
Just make sure that you have your back bolts undone, so the plates will slide out of the way like they have. Set it over the top of your cross-bar and then you can rotate them so they fit nice and flush. Now, this fairing will work with your round, square, elliptical, even arrow type crossbars, and some factory crossbars as well. You just need to make sure that your crossbar has a width of at least 35 1/2 inches. As you can see, these are going to be nice and contoured to the Rhino-Rack roof rack system, meeting up with all the grooves and keeping it nice and aerodynamic. Rotate the bottom around so that the hole lines up with the other hole.
Then, take your bolt, your Allen bolt with the washer, place it in the top, and start threading it in. Use your included Allen tool to tighten them down, and we'll repeat this on the other three. And as you can see when we tighten down the front ones, it's going to pull and adjust pressure to push down on the front by tightening up that back racket. You can see it coming back down it, and you just want to be careful not over-tighten these because the plastic can break. Keep in mind for all your different lengths, all the hardware and features will be the same, and that completes the look at our Rhino-Rack fairings.

It is used in a Chevy Volt for reference
NOT THAT EASY TO PUT ON WITH THE RHINO RACK.ONCE ON LOOKS GOOD.
The Rhino Rack 38" Fairing is a perfect fit on my RR Vortex system for 2017 Ford Focus Hatchback. Assembly and installation were quick and easy. The online order process was a snap and shipping was super quick. Thanks to eTrailer for all the product information on the website.
Simple to mount to the Rhino Rack bar and illuminated the loud whistle from the wind!
The rack is exactly what I wanted for my Ford Focus ST. I did however, go for the bigger fairing than what is recommended. I felt the recommended wind fairing was too short for the width of my car. the one I purchased is in the pictures. The recommended size would be about 1.5 inches shorter on each end. The rack is sturdy, mounts are dead on. Would purchase again for other vehicles in our household.
Application = 2021 Subaru WRX Base.
Perfect fit! Great rally look.
The wind fairing arrived really fast and was expertly packed (small and with no unnecessary packaging to ship the item safely). The fairing was super easy to mount and the instructions were very straight forward-took about 15 minutes. Great quality and works as intended.
I’m beyond thrilled with my roof rack! Perfect fitment, easy directions, and it is super sturdy ??
This was purchased for my 2019 Subaru Outback and was the closest size that fit between the roof rails. It was actually too wide and I had to trim it to fit due to how the cross bars were recessed.
The placement does restrict the use of the sunroof. If you regularly use it.
Also, if you intend to use combine this with a cargo pod, versus a rack. Do not attempt. You'd need to notch gaps into the fairing to allow mounting of the pod onto the cross rails.
I've used this twice since purchase for an experiment. Due to modifying it to make it fit my vehicle it voided the warranty/option to return it...
We were experiencing some wind noise with the crossbars, so decided to give this a try. It works great, no noise now, good fit, simple install. A bonus- it does not ride down against the roof, so no concerns of wear on the paint.
Fits perfectly, came quick and was assembled easily. Holds up perfectly after a year of use.
Affordable, easy to install, and eliminated wind noise!
I was never able to use it. Once I had mounted the cargo box on roof rack, there was no way to attach the fairing. If I attached the fairing, there was no way to mount the cargo box. Never used the fairing.. still sitting in the closet.
This attachment looks cool and seems to do it's job when a car-top carrier is installed, however there seems to be a tapping on the roof at certain speeds and wind directions will driving. It's not consistent but is a bit annoying. Also, depending on how your carrier or roof rack attachment mounts, you will have issues with the mounting points conflicting.
I ordered a Rhino Rack Roof Rack and Wind Fairing for my 2011 Nissan Frontier. Both items arrived on time and were exactly what I had wanted. Thank you to etrailer.
I love this product. Just got it in the mail today, and was able to install it right away. The whistling noise from my crossbars and rooftop basket went away completely. The only thing wrong with my order, was one of the nuts on the mounting/clamp bracket was missing. I was able go to my local Home Depot and find a nut that fit perfectly. Hardly an inconvenience; the fix costed less than a dollar. I'll give a 4.5/10 rating. Will recommend to friends when theyre in the market
Had this item on my vehicle for a year now. No issues. The RRRF2 fit perfectly and does its job. It stops wind noise from the factory roof rack.
Well worth the money, strong, sturdy fittings. Should last for years to come. Looks great too..
Fits well on the Rhino Rack cross bars, on my 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee laredo (no sunroof). It is not properly curved for the roof, but it will work its way down the extra half inch on the two sides.
Had a buzzing noise inside the car any time I went over 35 mph. Drove me and the family crazing. After purchasing and installing this on my 2018 Subaru CrossTrek the noise level dropped by 99%. It's been a year since I've installed it and I'm completely happy with this purchase.
Good product and fast service
I got these for my '22 BMW X7. There are really tight on the factory rails to remove/install. Quality of the bars is solid. They do clear the sunroof.
simple yet stylish, great for wide cross bars,
initial installation a tad cumbersome but not too bad, once in place can slide to desire spot on bar.
Satisfied overall.
