Expert Reply:
The Sportrack Roof Rack part # SR1010 is listed as a fit for the roof of your 2016 Acura ILX but since this is a semi-custom fit rack it's not going to provide you with the best fitting option. Instead I would recommend you go with the Rhino Rack part numbers # RRVA126B-2, # RRRLKVA and # DK335 which is a custom fit option for your vehicle that will fit much better.
With the rack isntalled you then would be able to use a kayak carrier like the Thule carrier part # TH834 for each kayak.
