I would jump on Fat Mike's offer quick if you hope to use ASAP.
I had the Bird, I think I was the first Boxster guinea pig for it, the owner of the comnpany installed it himself on my car right on the spot. You just have to get used to that the built in "suspension" of that style of rack but it's probably the most secure anchoring since it's to the undercarriage and not the bodywork/bumper. Unfortunately someone plowed into the back of it when I was away from the car in a parking lot.
