Pretty sure he's referring to car topping...

I know he is. I was just having a laugh.

Hey guys been doing research and watching lots of YouTube videos. So for my 2008 Buick Enclave, i just need to buy the cross bars because it already has side rail bars. I'm seeing them for $150 on Amazon. These are the original GM factory cross bars. Once I have these I can just mount the kayak on and strap down with cam buckles. Is this correct? Is there cheaper crossbars I should look at?

As long as their rated for the weight of the boat you should be good.

For about $100 more, i would look for after market racks like yakima or thule.  Much better quality in my opinion.

yes, but put some sort of a pad on the rails so the yak is protected and so that the yak has something to bite into when you strap it down. The plastic on metal bars will be slippery and the yak will wiggle or move, with a pad it will be snug. I use large diameter pool noodles and slit them to fit on the bars. Find them at the Dollar store this time of year for cheap.

You can get the foam pads, and they already have the notches cut out to fit aero bars or square bars. They are also shaped to fit the contour of the hull.
