Before the OEM Accessories are History
Here is a call for recommendations on 2nd gen accessories before they start disappearing...
I have:
- Mud Guards (uninstalled...but now that I am not getting a kit, may reinstall)
- Trunk Tray (I like it...)
- Wheel Locks
- Blackwood Steering Wheel (will install in January with Jet recall)
Considerations:
- Shift Knob - Is there a blackwood to match the steering wheel?
- Sunroof Visor - Concerned about cutting into the paint (like mud guards)
- Mask/Bra - I only used it on long trips for previous cars...
- Car Cover - OEM or aftermarket?
- Blackwood Gauge Trim - Seems overkill on the blackwood look... leaning against
- Blackwood Vents - May be overkill, but may also be subtle enough...
- Underbody Kit - Leaning against...I like the look of the TL equally with or without the kit...
Any opinions on the above? I figure I better get the "must-haves" before they are no longer available...

1) OEM body kit if you can find one
2) wheels / tires
The rest is if you really want them, not really a must have...
Sunroof visor will leave a mark (I have one) unless you take it off once in awhile and clean under it will you save the paint under it. (then again I am in Florida and the sun...well you know what I am talking about your in Cali)

I had the visor on my Integra, and it put a pretty good sized mark on the paint... In fact, it wore through some of the paint over the years...
My justification was that as long as I kept it on the car, who cared what was under it... But now that I am starting fresh, I am second guessing whether I want to do that to the car again...
Thanks to everyone for the replies... So looks like a lot of folks are pro-kit...
Perhaps I should look into whether they are still available... and what the current cost is...
