is this Con Ferr roof rack too wide?

hey,

my neighbor sold me this roof rack for pretty cheap,with four procomp 130( i think) lights,high lift jack,and mount. I put it on top of my 4runner. Legnth wise i like it. Width wise, it looks a little too big.What are your opinions? should I sell it and grab another rack?





thanks

pj

I say Leave it. It looks odd with 2 lights. More lights or smaller lights would look good.

Bob it width wise, other than that it looks pretty sweet.

run it! use the extra width in the rear to hand clothes on to dry after a day of kayaking, or camping!

DO you have a welder? you could just cut it and take a couple inches out of it. But i really dont think it looks that bad.

I do have access to a welder.I was accually thinking of bobbing it width wise a couple inches.

Some guy has a custom made rack thats a little smaller than this rack. Should I do it or keep this Con Ferr? is it a good rack company?

thanks
