Thanks guys! It turns out the roof rack is on back order so I just ended up cancelling the order (it's been 3 weeks going on 4 and it still isn't here). I will probably get a roof rack a little on down the road though! So since I'm not doing the roof rack right now, I just ordered this 12" LED light bar for my front bumper off eBay for $140!
