Proper job would be to take the ends off the rack & simply slip peices of tube in & reassemble.
Obviously this ain't an easy job, an alternative is to bend strips of 2.5mm (guess) steel round the rack inboard of where the ends screw on & this would be perfectly effective. If you're worried you could tack the bent ends together without affecting the heat treatment of the rack itself whatsoever. This is easy & safe to do - the worst that could happen is that it would fall off & you'd notice something rubbing when you were parking.
