The Thule OutWay 2-Bike Rack # TH45JV that you referenced is a great option for your car, and is actually one of my top recommendations since it is lightweight - about 18-lbs - and since it includes locks for both your bikes and for the rack itself. I also like it because it has a superior atachment attachment system. This trunk rack is perfect for carrying 2 bikes on your sedan, station wagon, or SUV. It attaches easily with 2 rubber-coated straps that let you raise your trunk or hatch without removing it from your vehicle. The arms fold down for compact storage. This rack is USA-made and protected by a limited lifetime warranty. I have linked videos to illustrate the great features of this rack. .
Any trunk rack will make contact with your vehicle's painted sheet metal. The key to reducing any potential damage to the finish is to keep the rack and vehicle very clean. Any trapped dirt or road grit can act like an abrasive - sort of like sandpaper - and could dull the paint finish if allowed to remain between the rack an car. Removing the rack when not in use will also help.
For reference all recommended 2-bike trunk racks for your FX35 are shown on the link provided.
