I’m a huge fan of the Yakima 1A. Plus you can use it on anything with drip rails.

+1 on the Yakima 1a. Also that bianchi-looking green on porsche faded yellow (not verse in my p colors) against cape-cod style shingled abode there!

For increased aerodynamics, one might attempt to completely separate the cross bars and whatever attachments by the virtue of height separation -- albeit from inefficiently large vertical blocks.

 

Full disclosure:

- those weird extension thingies were key to getting the rack on the '71 squareback (covered, behind) over it's factory rack (to put on bike racks)

- I still have and use all of the parts, from this photo taken in 2002, minus the weird extension thingies, which I have but don't use
