Gothic Safari Roof Rack
I have an idea.
A safari roof rack for my Cherokee made with the pointy finials from a wrought iron fence.
(Inspired by the Mayor's Car from Nightmare Before Christmas.
Thoughts? Comments? Rips?

It prob wouldn't look horrible, I've even thought of that as well after seeing someone use a section for a pot hanger in their kitchen. Only prob is I don't think it will look right once its all cut down and only 6 or 8 inches tall. But if its not to expensive or if u can find some old sections its always worth a quick cut n tack job to see how it looks in real life.

Might look better on a rack that wasn't so boxy. Just a thought Gothic isn't my thing. I searched around a lot before I found a good design to build mine off of.

Thanks everybody.
Good comments all.
Will take it all in.
If I decide to do it... I will post a shot.
If I do it and don't like it... I'll just take it off and ebay the hell out of it!
