I bet they didn't remove the roof rack when they painted, or if they did, they cleared your roof rack as well.

The roof rack on my 96 4runner the paint is fine but the 2000 I have and the 2000 4runner that my parents have the paint is flaking off.

I wonder if it's just the paint that was used at the time of manfacturing.

The crossbars (right on top of the roof) are peeling - 2000 SR5

I was planning on painting then w/ duplicolor factory match rattle can sometime - but I am looking for some non-skid rubber strips w/ a 3m backing to stick on top of them to hold stuff more secure.
