The EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver # 306-X7322 that fits your 2019 Honda HR-V does require trimming to install.

I have added a link below to a video install for you to take a look at which goes over the process.

Could you please make a hitch and 4-bike rack recommendation. Thank you,

You'll only be able to secure two bikes to a hitch-mounted rack on your HR-V. This is because all of the trailer hitches available for this vehicle are Class I rated, which can only safely handle 2 bikes (loading more could lead to damage on the hitch and vehicle). You will need to secure your other two bikes somewhere else, such as on the HR-V's roof. I've linked our full roof rack selection for your vehicle below.
