    I recently installed an Inno medium fairing on my stock cross bar. The bar is as far forward as possible. It rests with the feet on the roof as well as the end of the fairing on the rails (I adjusted it to be sure the feet made it all the way to the roof). When I hit highway speeds there is a loud noise that I believe is the feet rattling against the roof instead of sitting firmly on it. Does anyone know what I could change to fix this? I don't think I can give it a steeper angle, because the stock rack sits so low. I was thinking air might be flowing under it and was thinking about adding small plastic extensions to the bottom to bring it closer to the roof. I was also thinking it might be the air flowing over the top and causing it to lift the bottom a little, which I have no idea how to fix. Maybe I have just installed it wrong and just need to adjust it some?

    Damn, I figured this place would be crawling with roof rack experts.
