The genuine Audi one is a Thule Aero. I have it and it fits great on the allroad. I bought mine from the local Audi dealer and it was cheaper then getting the same thing from REI.

Personally I got the Yakima rack, I just like their product better but the Thule website or any of the rack web sites have fitment guide software that will tell you what fits the AR specifically.

The site below has great prices on either one.<ul><li><a href="http://www.rackwarehouse.com/index.html">http://www.rackwarehouse.com/index.html</a</li></ul>

Default I got 58" bars so I can move my pod away from the antenna.

Nice to have the extra bar length and they don't hang to far over the side of the car.
