Adding Accessories

My manager at my dealership offered me discounts on all accessories until 90 days after purchase. I was looking through Acura Estore online to see what accessories were worth getting. I usually think these add-ons are not really worth getting but I'm considering. I have Crystal Black exterior/Ebony interior.


-Full Nose Mask (Its black leather on a car that's already black, is it too much or do you'll think it work?) The reason I'm getting this is because I have to parellel park where I live and someone already left several light scrathes on the bumper from backing up into me. The mask would be for protection reasons mostly.

Cost: $162; $240.40 (w/installation)

-Splash Guards I always thought these would be a good addition to the car.

Cost $107; $146.20 (w/installation)


-Interior Trim Kit The main reason I'm going to get this is b/c some scrapped off a bit of the silver lining on the passenger side of my car w/they cane. Plus painting the entire interior black would be hot. Too bad it wasn't already done.

Cost $235; $ 333 (w/installation)


Let me know yall opinions.

Do whatever YOU like.

The nose mask sounds like a good idea in your case. I normally don't like them, but if you live in a city, your bumpers are going to get destroyed.

I have the Mud Guards on my car and they help prevent the puddle/sprinkler splashes on the ground esp. on the blk paint. Im not a fan of the nose mask but i would look into a clear bra instead so it doesnt ruin the front face/grill =) I do like the look of the dark metal trim kit but i would assume that could get scratched also.

I purchased the Splash Guards and Cargo Hooks. The guards look great on the Crystal Black. I'm looking to put tints on this week or next. The place I want to go to has to order the correct firm tint wasn't in the system computer yet.

Oh yeah, Acura has discontinued the Interior Trim Kit. I would have loved to paint the interior all black.

I do like the look of the mud guards from the photos I've seen. The accessories I plan to get are the all season floormats and the trunk mat. Of course, we'll see what happens when I go to buy the car. I've always wanted a trunk mat even though I've never had the need for one!
