Washington is an open carry state. With your CPL, the only restriction to firearms in your vehicle is that you cannot have a loaded rifle or shotgun in your vehicle. That is in the hunting section. You can also carry your handgun and/or rifle/shotgun openly outside the vehicle as well.
The only time you are REQUIRED to conceal your handgun is if you leave it in the vehicle unattended - then it must be concealed and at least the vehicle locked. An unloaded rifle or shotgun carried in a visible rack is no problem at all, even if left unattended. That wouldn't necessarily be the smartest thing to do, though, do to enticing theft.
