Thanks! I love the gunmetal flake. Pops nicely in the sun. My last Mojo was gunmetal as well but not as much white as we went with on the Makai. Will find some other pictures and send them your way.

Okay great to know!! Ya I love these racks but the visibility on the port side does bother me sometimes. I am in manufacturing so I have a few machine shops that can knock it out no problem.
Do yours swivel?(Looks like the do when I zoom in on the pic but cant tell for sure) Any clearance issues when swiveling with boards in? You mention that they are "slightly less secure" is that why you have pool noodles on them?2019 Makai

Yes they do swivel. Basically the mod is on the "fingers" that hold the boards. Just changed where they attach to the base plate of the rack. The base plate attaches to the swivel so all of that is still factory and works great.
Yeah, pool noodles where just to close down the gap a little. They stay put perfect 90% of the time but occasionally if I hit a big wave or something it would cause them to shift a little in the racks. Pool noodles solved that but honestly it would be fine without them. Hardly ever happens and worst case board just gets cocked a little, don't see how it could ever come out completely.2015 Mojo with autoflow

Ya the Mod seems super simple I just never thought to do it or looked at them to see if it was possible. My hat off to you sir!!
Ya my only concern would be a board dropping out of the spring loaded arm where it has the rubber piece that is a little more flexible but that is only at the end where it is flexible so shouldn't be a problem. So I assume from your comment that you haven't had one fall out?2019 Makai

I drilled and tapped on the “thin” side opposite of where the are mounted in the vertical position. Reason was that the flat on the 45 was wider on that side so the base plate sits flush vs hanging over the edge like it would have if I did it on the other 45. Added benefit is that the factory tapped holes face down so I never have to look at them.
