Question:

Looking to add roof rack cross bars on my 16 Pathfinder. I want something that looks nice with the vehicle, like it came from the factory. Thanks

For a roof rack that looks the most like a factory roof rack we have several options for your 2016 Nissan Pathfinder.

First, you can use the Inno bars # INXB108-115 with the flush feet # INXS100 for the OEM appearance. Thule has a similar roof rack, the AeroBlade Edge, in black, # TH7503B-TH7503B, and silver, # TH7503-TH7503. Rhino-Rack has a great option as well, the Stealth Bar, # JA7971, and there is a silver option, # JA7952.

Out of all of these options, I recommend the Thule AeroBlade Edge roof racks. The Thule AeroBlade bars have a wing shape for less wind resistance and noise compared to elliptical, round or square bars. They are made of light weight aluminum for both strength and corrosion resistance. And the Edge versions look more like a factory roof rack than other models.
