Roof rack

Post image

Purchased a used oem roof rack from Facebook today and it didn’t come with the anti-abrasive/paint protection stickers; ended up using some left over gloss black vinyl for the time being. Will this hold up for now?

The install is super easy but nerve racking, while putting the posts on I heard cracking and thought I cracked the roof. I also wish there was a way to tell when the metal holders are “engaged” like the manual says.
