Default Hitch for F Sport

Hey Guys, any recommendations for an aftermarket hitch for a 2016 NX200t? Not sure if having the F Sport Package matters or not but would like it to be as hidden as possible without modifications to the vehicle, IE just bolt on. 2" receiver is preferable and doesn't have to hold a ton of weight just a carrier or bike rack. Thanks!!!

Default Easy Install

Received hitch last night, Was probably the easiest install I've ever done, even in the dark. Didn't need a jack, just used little Rubbermaid step stools to hold up the mufflers. Put the hitch on my chest and hand screwed the one driver's side bolt that doesn't hold muffler bracket in. Then the other side. Tightening to all 5 bolts to 92 ft*lbs was the most concerning part, that's a lot of torque and felt like I was going to strip the threads but luckily I was wrong.
