Some have drilled through the top (@cruiserdan) to install these: Thule Artificial Raingutters See here for pics: FRP top question I think a roof rack from @reevesci is a viable option. Uses gutters and feet on top to distribute weight evenly. Post #302 in this thread: 40-55-60-70-80-100 & 200 Roof Racks and Mounts Alternatively, exoskeleton tied to sliders and rear bumper. Good luck Last edited: May 4, 2018
