Did any of you get the splash guards and wheel locks? Don't know if every new owner gets them installed with the car or if my dealer was kind enough to give them to me with my car and the bill ofcourse!

I got one too. Bought the car 11/03. Not leased (bought outright), no referral. Lucky me. Went to see how much another key fob would be to keep as a spare. They wanted about $200!!! ($100 for the part, $100 to program). Oh well. Thinking about new floor mats instead.

Alright folks there's been a lot of theories in this thread but I think I can finally shed some light on the Acura gift card phenomenon. Stopped by my dealer this evening because its the 23rd and my card expired on the 31st. They were also having an RDX event tonight so that was my other reason for going. After the parts guy was done ringing up my "purchase" (which came to $102 and change), I offhandedly asked what the deal is with the gift cards, I think I asked him if they sent them out randomly. He says "No, they sent them out to people who have not been to the dealer in a while"... to try and get them coming again for parts or service. I have not been to the dealer since my first oil change 2+ years ago and I buy all my parts like oil filters and air filters online because I can find better prices. So, if you have been to your dealer recently for for service, etc that's probably why you didn't get one of these.
