    I've actually got a rack and a basket on order. I'm just waiting on them to arrive. Would you like links?

    Do the racks come with a bike rack included? I couldn't tell. If so, has anyone ordered a second bike mount?

    The universial nissan rack that mike and I have ordered is just a cross bar.

    You have to add accessories to it. Such as a cargo cage or bike holder. Use the tailgate style bike rack.
    It will pay for it self in "free" 407 usage. Lol

    Had to google the 407, (I'm on the west coast) we have front and rear plates here, so i'd need two sets of racks!
    I'd prefer a hitch mount, but haven't seen a hitch available for this car yet..... anybody know of one?

    Actually, if you go to any hitch shop, they can weld up a bracket for a hidden hitch. It may be stamped "NOT FOR TOWING" but there's a lot of accessories for the "hidden hitch" style bracket. I even have a toilet seat one for hunting. lol. No log pooping on my hunting trips! Seriously though, look up a hitch shop.

    Ahh, the bumper dumper. I talked to a shop, but the cost was prohibitive, I think the SRG 1 1/4" hitch at $163 might be the way to go... probably won't allow me to use the hitch mounted dirt bike carrier however...
