Exclamation 03 roof rails delete

I'm looking for answers to doing a 03X roof rail delete
did a search on this site and google but no luck
I would like feedback from someone who has done the delete, knows of some sites/info or can point me in the right direction
I would like to streamline the X

main question is will it leave holes in the roof so water/air leaks?
if yes how to solve the hole problem
how will the delete look? please post pictures of your delete
is the delete reversible for future resale value?

Also what else can I do to make the X look slimmer (no lowering)
and no I'm not trading for a RDX or TL

TIA

The rails are attached such that they will support about 150 pounds and that means that you will either have threaded bolts sticking up or holes to screw into.

Remove the cross beams and the rails have to stay.

You could trade for a naked MDX.
