Thule rack fitting kit

BIMMERPOST
     Featured on BIMMERPOST.com
Has anyone tried out the Thule rack fitting kit that is made for 2011 models on their F30? The kit model number is: KIT3028. It didn't seem like the roofline or rack mount points changed much between '11 and '12, but I know that a small change can translate to a poor fit.

I know the BMW Base Support System is made by Thule, but I'm still interested in opting for the standard Thule bars. These bars fit a wider variety of Thule accessories and should be more quiet than the BMW base bars.

After looking at the 2011 and 2012 roof mount points side-by-side, I realized they were identical. I ordered the 3028 kit and it fits perfectly.

Nice job! Thanks for letting us know! How much did that end up costing you?

Hi,

Setup looks good.

How wide are the actual bars ? And how far are the front/rear ones apart ?
