Removing Luggage rails

[BJC7JR]

hey guys, i'm new to the group and there is some great stuff here. i haven't seen a thread about shaving a luggage rack. I'm thinking of trying it, but i'm concerned about water leaks. anybody have any luck?

There are some threads, if you search, that talk about this. Best if you either replace the screws or use something with a lower profile or some kind of silicone sealant in the holes to avoid water getting into the headliner. g/l
