The Bird Automotive Nissan 350Z Bike Rack for Roadster and Coupe is shown on the right.  The Golfbag Carrier/Luggage Rack for Coupe or Roadster is shown below.  Bike, Luggage, and Ski/Snowboard Racks are attached to the provided under-car Receiver Pipes.  When not in use, the Rack is easily removed in a couple of  minutes and can be stored in the trunk (boot). 

 

Golf Bag Carrier/Luggage Rack on Roadster

Rated to carry up to 100 #'s  (45 kilos)

Receiver Pipes are shown above  installed cleanly and behind the exhaust pipe tips.

Nissan 350Z Coupe Bike Rack inserted into  the Provided Receiver Pipes.

The two Pipes serve as receivers for all versions of the Rack in a manner similar to trailer hitch racks seen on SUV's.  They are 1" diameter, painted black and are intentionally inconspicuous.  They are located between the factory tailpipes, recessed behind the bumper and tailpipes. 

Under-Car installation requires about an hour. 

Bike Rack Arms are height adjustable to level bikes.  Carries up to 75#'s  (35 kilos).

Arms fold in flat and are individually removable.

All Racks easily removed in a couple of minutes.

350Z trunk (boot) opens without touching the Rack.

Two Straps from inside the Trunk attach to the Rack.  Paint is protected.

  

 

Rack stores   easily  in the  trunk of Coupe & Roadster

           Installation of the Receiver Pipes requires attaching the U shaped Pipes under the spare tire well. The plastic bumper cover remains in place during installation and is not affected.  No cutting or welding, some drilling.  Unlike trailer hitches, the Pipe installation is specifically engineered to minimize damage in a rear-end collision.  Accomplished  in about an hour by anyone of average mechanical ability, installation requires no special tools. Thorough illustrated instructions are provided; at least half our customers install themselves.

           Locking Accessory
As one customers told us, "my bike's worth more than my car so this lock better work!"  An exaggeration perhaps, but we understand.  The Security Kit consists of two long-shanked padlocks (same keys) and a heavy duty vinyl coated straight steel cable.  The first lock goes through a hole in the  Pea Shooter (receiver) Pipe and the Leg of the Rack, locking the Rack to the car.  The cable goes through the bikes' frames and one or both wheels of each bike.  The cable padlocks to both ends of the cable and a hole through the Leg, locking the bikes to the Rack.

           Golf Bag Carrier and Luggage Rack
The Golf Bag Carrier - Luggage Rack attaches to the same Legs as the Bike Rack shown above and uses the Receiver Pipes for support.  A 12" x 24" Platform carries  two pieces of luggage, two golf bags, or one of each  The Carrier has been tested at speed to safely support 100 pounds. The trunk will continue to open without touching the Carrier/Rack and it can be stored in the front trunk. Click here for further Carrier details.

The SnowRack for carrying skis and snowboards is a stainless steel carrier attached to one or both of the Legs of the Rack to hold the tails of the skis or boards.

         A Customer Writes to Say Thanks
"Dear Bird Automotive, I just had to drop you a note to thank you for my Bicycle Rack. I really appreciated the rush order. As promised it was easy to install, and really easy to use. We went on a week long trip and took our 2 mountain bikes, it worked great, didn't use any trunk space and the bikes were safe & secure ( we didn't even have to remove the front tires). On top of all that it looks really cool!!! I couldn't be happier with it. I get envious stares and questions from fellow ..import..owners.. when it's on the car, of course I tell them who to call. Thank you so much for taking the time to answer my questions , my spouse was so impressed with my choice. This way we don't have to hoist our bikes onto the roof after a long ride, and with the bikes attached you don't even know it's there. It's really great! Thank You!! Sincerely," a San Francisco Bay area customer.  Thank you dear customer!
