2017-2022 Honda CRV Black Aluminum Roof Rack Cross Bars & Side Rails Kit | 2 Cross Bars + 2 Roof Rails, 220LBS Load Capacity, Low-Profile Design, for Cargo/Luggage/Kayak/Snowboard/Bike Rack, ClimeCo Certified

Product Overview

The 2017-2022 Honda CRV Black Aluminum Roof Rack Cross Bars & Side Rails Kit is a complete set designed to enhance the transport capacity of Honda CRV models produced between 2017 and 2022. The kit features a pair of cross bars and a pair of side rails that attach directly to the vehicle’s existing roof structure, providing a solid framework for carrying additional cargo.

Key Features

• All‑steel construction finished in black aluminum for a sleek appearance.
• Two cross bars span the width of the roof, while two side rails run along the edges.
• Maximum load capacity of 220 lbs per rack, allowing for a range of transport needs.
• Low‑profile design minimizes aerodynamic drag and reduces visual bulk.
• Compatible with cargo, luggage, kayak, snowboard, and bike racks.
• ClimeCo Certified, indicating that the product meets specific environmental criteria.

Compatibility

These components are engineered to fit the roof architecture of Honda CRV vehicles manufactured during the 2017‑2022 model years. The kit does not require modifications to the vehicle’s existing frame or roof rails; it attaches to the standard mounting points found on the specified models.

Design Details

The cross bars are designed to provide a stable base for loading items that may need a level surface. Side rails act as mounting points for accessories that attach along the roof edges. Both sets are finished in black aluminum, matching the standard exterior paint palette for a cohesive look. The low‑profile shape reduces the vertical profile of the roof, helping maintain a streamlined silhouette and potentially lowering wind resistance compared to bulkier alternatives.

Applications

• Cargo and luggage – The cross bars and side rails create a secure platform for bags, suitcases, or other transportable goods.
• Kayak transport – The configuration allows for mounting kayaks with the appropriate kayak rack.
• Snowboard and bike rack – Items such as snowboards or bicycles can be attached using dedicated racks that connect to the cross bars or side rails.

Certification

ClimeCo Certification indicates compliance with a set of environmental standards related to manufacturing processes and material selection. The certification assures users that the kit has undergone evaluation in accordance with ClimeCo requirements.

Installation Considerations

Installation involves securing the cross bars to the roof’s existing mounting points. Side rails are positioned along the roof edges and secured with the provided fasteners. The kit is supplied with all necessary mounting hardware, and installation follows the instructions provided by the manufacturer. Proper alignment during installation ensures that the 220 lb load capacity is maintained and that items remain stable during transit.

Maintenance Tips

Regular inspection of mounting points and fasteners is recommended to ensure continued secure attachment. Cleaning the aluminum surface with a mild detergent and water helps maintain the finish and prevents corrosion. Because the kit is made from aluminum, it is resistant to rust, but exposure to harsh chemicals should be avoided to preserve the paint finish.

User Experience

Owners of 2017‑2022 Honda CRV vehicles report that the kit integrates seamlessly with their vehicle’s roof and offers a reliable way to extend cargo capacity. The black aluminum finish blends with most exterior paint schemes, and the low‑profile design keeps the vehicle’s silhouette streamlined. Users can mount a variety of cargo types without compromising vehicle safety when the kit is installed correctly.
