You need to be careful with the amount of weight you put up top on the FRP. Its not designed to handle a lot up there. The rain gutters are pretty minimal (and in my opinion not well designed in the first place

You have just one post to the rain gutters on each corner, and those are even close to the end of the gutter?
That's not sufficient, I guess. It puts unequal load on the gutter rails and will eventually break those.
I strongly recommend to put at leat two more posts on the rear and to extend the base rail of the rack more to the front and add another post over the door, in order to maintain equal distribution of force to the gutters.
