It almost eliminates rack noise at speed, as well as improving aerodynamics. Like TML said below, the fairing will wear right through you paint where it contacts the roof, because little bits of grit get trapped in the between the rubber strip on the bottom of the fairing and the roof. I applied a strip of 3M clearguard tape on the roof were the fairing touches, that should do the trick. Also note that the fairing does take up a bit of space on the cross bars as well, it seems the fairing mounting brackets are always right where I'd prefer to mount my bike rails.
