Do it. I'm very keen on cropping the OEM rails, not sure how, but I'm keen.

Everything is possible. Just need to find someone who will do it. Can't see it being too hard, myself.

I hate those silly rubber feet the rail legs sit on. I'd be happy just to get rid of those. I figure you could crop the bolts and fit a discrete thin gasket or paint protector then just bolt it back on. Thoughts?

Could easily make a thinner seal. Could just use an 'o' ring round the bolts to stop water getting in.
