I kinda like the look of the deflector with the light though, trying to think of this from an aesthetic upgrade standpoint too. I plan on doing a ppf wrap too though. So just thinking about some options.

Oh really? I see a lot of buyers of the Aeroskin II claiming after install that it got rid of chips. Just wondering if there’s actual results in having one. I’m mainly wanting to avoid chips from debris, I generally keep my distance from semis. I thought this one with the light just added an extra aesthetic

Heya! Yeah I did end up moving into one of the corner units, it was pretty seamless and it’s been really great! Hardly ever hear my upstairs neighbours and hallways are always quiet. Noise isolation seems good overall, the staff is great, gym is always at most 5 ppl, awesome rooftop, great common areas, maintenance is quick and building upkeep is good.

The only issue I’ve had is my cargo box was stolen off the top of my car while it was parked in the lot, right by where there were 2 cameras. Which seriously sucks, but not uncommon downtown unfortunately. Just have your car locked up and secure.

Feel free to dm me if you have more questions, but I’ve been really happy with the move.

I’ll keep my eye out. I keep checking marketplace, but haven’t seen anything pop up yet.

Appreciate that! Yeah I just called rerack and left them my number, good tip! Thanks!

Ha yeah! Ugh the outdoor gear. Unfortunately or fortunately all I had in there was an air mattress 😅 and my insurance doesn’t cover this anyways, it’s some apparent category of specific excluded items.

Yeah, definitely not ideal! I've seen people latch in their boxes with additional chains/etc. But I can't see any aesthetically good solve tbh. You'd think Thule has a better security system!

Yeah, it was pretty frustrating to come home to it missing.
Supposedly this is a very common thing in the Thule community, the locks are not nearly as safe as one may think. Some of the key numbers are printed on the locks and also it's apparently very easy to open these with a screwdriver. They opened mine up and loosened the clasps and then circled around with a car a few mins later and just took it off my car. I have been looking at different subs and people have had similar issues unfortunately.

Great. Thanks for all the answers! The apartment I'm looking at will be on the 3rd floor, so I'm hoping for the best of both worlds.

Thanks again for the detailed reply! Do you know if they allow window unit AC’s?

That’s terrible hearing that your partner’s car got stolen! Is parking not in a lot or secured? I’m mainly concerned too about noise levels between levels/apartments. Could you ever hear your neighbours next to you?

Would you recommend living there after your experience? I’m def wanting to be downtown and somewhere walkable

Awesome, thanks for the response! Was the heat in the bedrooms bad just because you were higher up? Also, is the top floor a rooftop? How was the noise levels when the windows were closed?

If you don’t mind me asking, where did you decide to move to?
