So I had many concerns about scratches, dents or damage using trunk racks or roof racks like any other 86/brz owners out there. I didn't want to drill holes into the roof lines to install a roof rack. I Looked into the slambert twin hitch but I didn't feel comfortable with the 100 lbs tongue weight for a tow hitch bike mount. So that got me looking for a trunk mount. Looked into saris trunk rack because of the price but after watching/reading reviews of it I learned that the 3 legs that make contact with the trunk focus all the weight on that area and warps the trunk for some reviewers. Later I found out of the thule bike rack. Checked all the boxes for me. The 2 sides that make contact with the paint is molded padding and its wider on the trunk. Just clean trunk before setting up the rack. No scratches. Has locks to deter thieves from taking rack. Also a lock on the bikes if I need to stop by a gas station store or whatever and not worry about leaving bikes on there during a quick stop. It is pricey tho. Im sure you can make other bike racks work these were just my thoughts when looking for the brz and cycling solution.
