Roof Box Colour

HuntingDrog

I'm all set to buy and Exodus 470L roof box in Halfords today...only thing is I'm not sure which colour will suit my car. Its no big deal to me but I'd like to get the aesthetics right thru choice:)

Anyway I've a Nissan QQ+2 caffe latte colour (see here for colour http://www.nissanusedcars.co.uk/en.GB/product.htm?product=1945037 .......looks nicer than it sounds....)

Quick question - which box colour would suit the car?
Grey? http://www.halfords.ie/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_storeId_11101_catalogId_15551_productId_925001_langId_-1_categoryId_212588?cm_re=StaticMains-_-ROOFBOX-_-exodus470
Black? http://www.halfords.ie/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_storeId_11101_catalogId_15551_productId_709073_langId_-1_categoryId_212588

(and I don't have the car with me to check but the good offer is today only-so have to buy today by making a guess...)

tks for any advice

The grey one is €60 cheaper, and to my eye looks better too. Get yourself an AXA plus card for another 10% off.

Keeps stuff inside that little bit cooler too

That car trim is black, so maybe black?

But tbh it's not something I'd notice once whichever box is on the car.
60euro cheaper for the grey means you have a little extra holiday cash.

never thought of that. good point

yeah-fair enough. I think the 60 quid is too big to ignore too.

Cheers for the opinions and replies. I'll head back to the store later and get the grey

I've the same car as you, OP - I'd be interested in finding out how easy it is to fit / remove, and also does it need any mounting points other than the roof bars that come standard with the car.

we have the rails which is good but we need the bars (that go across the car only......prices range from 100-200....more aerodynamic and look well as price increases.

I won't be using the box that much ...maybe 3-5 times a year. therefore I'll take the bars off each time...so not worried about the look of the bars, so I'm going to buy Halfords black bars at €100.

Guy in the shop should me the locking mechanism of the bars to my rails..seems simple enough to put on/off these bars...its just putting on/off the bulky box itself that will require a 2 man job, i reckon

They both look good to be honest. I'd be more inclined to go with the cheapest of the two.

Settle it with this
