I think "Palaban" did his with a canadian TS Wagon roof strip

the cost approximately $50 + shipping (i think)

(left side is 91046FE010 and right side is 91046FE000)

here is some instructions:

I'm actually thinking of getting the cross bars to complete the look. To me the racks, (pardon the pun) tops off its wagonistic character. But depending on when it is I'll come down for the "un"install.

is there any other places that sell those roof strips cheaper? i've been dying to get those roof rails off. i like the clean, jdm look. btw, im down for the install, i wanna see first hand if it's easy enough to do it myself.
