Recommended Flush Style Crossbar Roof Rack For A 2017 Ford Focus
Question:
I own a 2017 Ford Focus 4-door sedan. I would like to buy a roof rack. However, I much prefer, visually, a roof rack that: 1 fits flushinch i.e., no crossbar overhang, and 2 is black in color. Based on my research, the Rhino Rack part number RRRS323Binch should meet those requirements. That product was featured on your video titled, 2017 Ford Focus roof rack Expert Review Video.inch The attached picture is a screen-shot from your video. I have three questions: 1 I cannot find RRRS323B on your website. Was it discontinued? Or is there just a new product number for this same part? 2 What other flushinch and black-colored roof racks are available for my vehicle? 3 If there are no flush and black-colored roof racks available, are there any flushinch roof racks available, regardless of color? My priority is that the rack sits flush, not color. Hope this makes sense. Thank you,

Expert Reply:
The Rhino Rack RRRS323B Crossbars have been discontinued by the manufacturer but there are still black - flush look options available for your 2017 Ford Focus.
The Rhino-Rack ROC25 Roof Rack for Naked Roofs # RR68MR will fit a 4 door.
The Rhino-Rack ROC25 Roof Rack for Naked Roofs # RR78MR will fit a 5 door (excluding RS models).
The Thule WingBar Edge Crossbars # TH56FE, Edge Clamp Feet for Thule Edge Crossbars # TH79SC, and Fit Kit for Thule Evo Clamp Roof Rack Feet # TH145125 will fit a 5 door RS model.
Each of these will require a naked roof and will clamp on to your door frame to mount in place. Each of these are black as well, but if your change your mind down the road there are silver options available too. Just make sure that you choose the correct one based on your doors and whether or not it's an RS model.
I've attached two video below where AJ and Evangeline will go over these roof racks.
