w212 Roof rack for snowboard

Hey guys I was wondering which roof rack would be best and easiest for carrying a snowboard and bike (once it gets warmer) for a 2013 e63 with panoramic roof. I'm new to this and would like to hear from people that have had experience with racks. As of right now I need the roof rack to carry my snowboard. I would like to know which parts I need exactly to get this done.

I dont know the exact parts, but the E63 deserves a Whispbar setup. I love mine, but I have a wagon, so it,s totally different.

MB sells the roof racks as part of the accessories. Retails for $300 but this guy's selling for half that: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Genuine-Mercedes-E-Class-2010-2015-Basic-Carrier-Bar-Roof-Rack-OEM-E350-W212-/321628403525?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item4ae28bf745&vxp=mtr

That's a great deal, but is that all I need to hold a snowboard? or is there another part I'd have to buy.


Thanks

...then you'll need a Thule or Yakima ski/board holder that will attach to the OEM cross bars.
