Default Aftermarket Jeep Parts Roof Rack

Hi
I am looking for a roof rack for my JKU i have come across the one on the after market jeep page. Firstly does any one have this roof rack system and can you tell me what you think of it pros and cons.
I won't be carrying a heap of weight up top and don't really want to drill through my hard top. I think it is well priced at $1299 and $45 for postage.

The fact that it uses the fiberglass sill as a support is a very bad design.

You need either the MBRP or rhino system. Alternatively there is the Gobi stealth.

Check out the AEV rack system, similar price to the Backbone and has fewer holes through the hard top. It also mounts to the roll bar similar to the back bone and comes with Ali tray.

I am currently tossign up between the AEV and the backbone system. My draw back is the AEV does not give a definitive load rating.
