Regarding the racks, they come off pretty easily. I cleaned mine off and resprayed them with a rattle can of flat black rustoleum some time ago. I figured I could sand them down and try again easily if they looked bad after my first attempt, but they came out ok. The rubber seals under each “foot” on the rails were all shot and I suspect leaking into my roof, but fortunately these are still available from BMW.

I need to do mine too. The paint is flaking off. Is there a way to plug the mounting holes? I don't ever plan on using them.
Actually the paint on the roof and hood needs to be stripped off and repainted. The vertical panels anre't bad and could benefit from a correction. I was thinking of doing the roof and hood in a medium beige-y color
