OK Guys, here my luggage. It looks very much like kczukiman's, just the mounting is different. Same boxes, but I gave mine 3 coats of spray on truck bed liner (wally world). It hold up pretty good to dings, but really shows off dust. I might try the roll on next time. Or, I might buy the camo version of the boxes if I can find them cheap enough.

I bent some steel strap to fit over my rack, and attached the strap using these:

The boxes are just bolted to the strap. I used big fender (could probably be bigger) washers:

To finish I added a cross bar between the two boxes, and top it off with some self-sticky reflectors (you can see where the clamps are attached to the rack, they're the shiny bolts):

Overall I think they look pretty good. I'll have to see how they hold up though...

Total cost about $50, but could be done for less if you just buy what you need. i bought a lot of everything.
