Loaded with the kayaks on top, dogs and cargo inside. Second pic is fuzzy from sunscreen on the phone's camera lens. This is with the OEM roof rack, the Thule 872XT fairing, and Thule j-racks from Dick's Sporting Goods. Thule doesn't list these j-racks on their website, as they seem to be specific to Dick's stores. The model number on the box is 815. In any event, they work fine. Not super easy but not super difficult to load either. You run ratchet straps over the kayak, through the j-rack, and around the roof rack then use bow and stern lines to help shore things up. I tied those lines down to the tow hook in front and on my trailer hitch in the back. Drove three hours each way and the kayaks stayed pretty still and stable. Also much quieter than anticipated, but I never went above 65 MPH. Definitely howled but still quieter than expected. One thing to know is that the rear wiper was rendered unusable, as the stern lines ran against it. If you could get a couple inches away from the rear of the vehicle and tie down to, say, a hitch ball, then you could use the wiper. Didn't rain on me so it wasn't a problem but something to keep in mind.

What's up with your front bumper cover?
Check the tag on the sign; it's on a military reservation.
Looks like an unpainted replacement panel.
Nope! I plastidipped it. Doesn't look that great but it has proven effective. I'm sure I'll tear it off at some point this summer but I'm letting it stay for now to test the durability. See here: http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/showthread.php?123840450-Plasti-Dipped-front-end-mask
I see your single kayaks and raise you two tandems! Scary as he!! on the highway; they're two huge sails up there. I'm really curious about the updraft limit on these racks on the Mazda5 (I have the same base setup as you), but can't find any data online.
Here is my lowest Mazda
Spring AutoExe -30 and original absorbers. Who ordered the spring Eybah Pro -40 and sports shock absorbers Plaza (analog BILSTEIN B6), as well as the set of all the levers of polyurethane. Will soon be even lower
And yet sometimes we look like this ..

Rusty? Lol. It'll be my all year project once my Zender car is road worthy and sold.

It looks darker than it is, 20 and 35.
On our way up to "The City" six passengers (myself, wife, 17 year old, 1 year old, 5 year old, and 14 year old), Chicco Liteway stroller, two duffle bags, and laptop bag behind third row, bagpack, and diaper bag between right front seat and right second row seat with rear facing convertible car seat and of course a medium sized rolling suit case, playard and duffle bag on top Yakima basket. Constant 70-80mph with various bathroom and stretching breaks and constant 20 mpg average.
