Thule or Yakima.

Personally I will be purchasing the BMW base and snowboard rack. I think it will give me the best fitments and avoid scratches. Plus the snowboard rack has a honeycomb design so air will flow through and not block it.

I have a set of Yakima racks with the wind deflector and it whistles and is very annoying. The base rack also scratches the paint if you're not extremely careful when installing or removing them.

I think the price is cheaper then Yakima/Thule because you need the same equipment plus the 4 Q clips which are about $30 for two. These are the things that scratch the paint and door frame.
