trailer hitch and rear bumber applique

Does anyone have any actual pictures of an installed factory trailer hitch or a rear bumper applique? I'm planning to buy a new RDX next month and I want to get these installed but would like to see what they look like on an actual car first.
Thanks for your help!

I will take a picture of mine as soon as I install the rear bumper applique. I have installed one before for this car. Looks pretty good. It has the RDX logo on the right side.

I would greatly appreciate that. Another question...can the rear bumper applique be removed? If so, how would you do it? I am worried that the film may get scuffed up over time and I'll have replace it with a new one.

Thanks everyone!

Does anyone else have any pictures of an installed OEM trailer hitch or rear bumper applique? I'm really curious on what rhey look like on an actual RDX.

Thanks in advance!

Here's a few shots. The weird pattern in the second shot is just a reflection off my garage floor.

RDX Hitch

I'd say the OEM hitch is tucked in very nicely. No problems hitting it with my shin or whatever.

Looking at those pictures has me wondering why they have it dangling so low and under the bumper cover when they could have had a knock out in the center of the slot between the reflectors. It would not be in the position it is in to drag on a steep incline and the adapter would not have to raise the ball back up. Would have been a cleaner look and more practical.
