For the 2020 Acura MDX I recommend the etrailer.com Trailer Hitch Receiver part # e98840 because it provides the best ground clearance compared to the other options so the bike rack will be less likely to drag the ground on steep drive ways or other low ground clearance driving situations. It is also the least visible option because of it's concealed cross tube design so the only portion of the hitch that is visible once installed is the receiver square. I have attached a photo and installation video for your reference.
For the bike rack I recommend a wheel mount bike rack because of your aluminum frames. The best option is the Kuat NV 2.0 Base 2-Bike Platform Rack in gunmetal gray part # NV22G which allows you to carry the bikes by their wheels instead of the delicate frame to avoid scratching. The bike rack itself is made of a nice lightweight aluminum to avoid corrosion and gives it a nice sleek look. It also tilts away from rear cargo access when you need a cold drink from the cooler after riding the trails!
If you do not care for the gunmetal gray, you may consider the matte black option part # BA22B.
