FWIW, I ended up getting the Railbar system, some feedback / observations:

1. The sunroof still works - when opening the sunroof can graze the railbar depending on how you install it, however, it does NOT impede or scratch the sunroof (the bars flex quite a bit).

2. I would've preferred some more clearance, but it looks great - I don't really use the sunroof all that much; the black goes well with the M-sport roof rails and I prefer the low-profile to the higher BMW rails in silver or other yakima/thule options + I have a yakima cargo box (showcase 20).

3. It did take a while to get the kit. To fit the X7 - the front bar needs to be a XXL and that bar in black has been on backorder for a while and most retailers (including the Yakima reps I spoke with) were unsure when they would get another shipment. I got lucky and one morning I woke up and Amazon had exactly 1 in stock.

Hope this helps.
