I was going to say that all of the roof mounted carriers I've seen don't taper at the back. I'm not a fan of their look at all.
I've only once had to strap gear to the top of my car, and that was because I had 5 guys and all their camping and rock climbing gear for the weekend in it. I just used a plastic tote and secured it with a ratcheting tie-down strap... Then again, I almost never ran out of space in the Subaru Legacy hatchback.
I've also gone on a 5 day SoCal trip with 4 people in a Jetta. Still plenty of room for all the people and stuff. Not sure what people are hauling in those roof mounted carriers... Must be a month long vacation with the family.
Nice touch on color matching though. It does look better that way.
