Camaro Roofrack for kayak????

I know this is going to turn into a flamming, but Im going to start it anyways, because I would love someones advice on WHERE TO BUY a good roofrack for the camaro. And typical prices for them.

PS anyone who wants to say "why would you do that to a camaro" "blasphemy" or any other smartass comments will just be ignored. I have this car and my motorcycle. Thats it. This is the ONLY way I can transport a kayak other than getting a hitch in the back. Im not going to rent a uhaul, im not going to rent a trunk. Id would like a roof rack to have on ONLY when im transporting the kayak. end of story. So please no un-needed dumbass comments about how terrible it will look. I understand it will look terrible, thats why I only will have it on when im transporting it. I need it for the function. Thats it. I would like someone advice on what kind to get, where to get it, or anything that is helpful. NOT on how it will look.

I agree, most of these threads turn into a flamming and no one can get any real information. Its just dumb.

Well it certainly served its purpose there! Not too bad. Especially if it's just to transport with. I say
