Default 2017 ES300H Roof rack ideas?

Hi,
New guy here. Had my ES for some time now and want to throw as roof rack system on top. Would a 56 inch length be too long for the ES300? Any one know what system I could go with. I see so many option and don't feel like buying things just to send it back.

Thanks all.

Lexus does not recommend roof racks. However, if you are dead set on mounting a rack, look for a roof rack for the same model year of Avalon…they are virtually identical in the roof design. Just be aware that the roof antenna may get in the way of any load you put up there. Oh, and the sheet metal of an ES is highly susceptible to denting. (ie, don't leave it outside when a hailstorm is predicted....I recently saw a 2020 ES 300h with 50,000 miles listed at $36,000 Cdn....with a damage repair report on Carfax of $20,000 for hail damage! (wondering why they didn't just write it off).
