Just wanted to share a photo from over the weekend. My sister and brother-in-law has an FX35 in the same color and we're both fitted with bike racks. I scrap my hitch more often now with the 350Z suspension if my approach is wrong.
Cool I ride too! From the pic and angle you didn't invest in a camber kit, how's that working for ya? Gary
The pic makes the wheel looked angled and is really nothing close to that. But I did go in for an alignment the other week and they adjusted my front due to inner tire wear. I asked them to use 350Z alignment specs but they used something between stock and 350Z. They said that the heavier weight of the car and wider wheelbase would wear my tires more using 350Z specs. I'll see how that goes.

Was thinking sea suckers but I also carry two extra bikes for kids. I also have this fear that the suction will not hold if I ever need to do a fast swerve to avoid other drivers.
I'm not attaching anything to my paint, nor hanging a bike off my car for 950-1000 miles to either Kentucky or Arizona (my usual trips) so I managed to stuff two mountain bikes into my G35. The 27.5 I was giving to my son fit in the back seat minus the front wheel, put my 29'er frame and both wheels plus the front wheel off the 27.5 in the trunk.
Minus the front wheel, my road bike easily fits in the back seat.

The most important thing in that trunk is the Superflash rear tail light. Seriously. Anything to get the attention of the idiots behind the wheel texting and daydreaming. I upgraded to the Superflash Turbo. Guaranteed to get the attention of drivers during the daytime....

Sea Sucker makes the Bomber if you have to carry 3 bikes. I've had my Talon now for about 3 years. It has never lost hold from fast swerves to 85mph freeway runs out of state. People always think they're suction cups, but they're vacuum cups.

Werd!
Headlights are decent too, Sigma Buster 2000 on the handlebars, Serfas E-Lume 1100 on the helmet. I got more light than most cars do!
