It was $US 75 to "prep" the car for the rear bumper mounted bike rack. There are 2 small covers on my rear bumper, that I assume you remove to attatch the bike carrier (which I have not ordered yet).

I prefer not to use the on top carriers, and have previously used hitch mounted bike carriers, and some trunk/bumper mount carriers on cars without hitches. I did find a hitch for my 528 a bunch of years ago, worked very well.
