Hi All. New owner of a 2014 TSX Special Edition 6spd. I'm in MA and will be looking forward to meeting some of you who are in the area.

One picture for now.

Nice! Congrats from a fellow Masshole. Just got a new '13 myself. Originally went in for the SE in CBP and ended up in a CBP tech instead. Enjoy.

I test drove the auto. I didn't like the paddle shifters and I don't quite care for leather. Otherwise I would have gotten a Vortex Blue.

The SE fit almost perfectly. There's still a few quirks but I can always mod it. I'm enjoying it so far. Just got the WS70 Blizzaks on and ready for the upcoming weather.

Just got rear ended today. Low speed. Damage isn't too bad. A couple of dings from the other vehicle's license plate bolts.

I have a paint protection film on my rear bumper, so that means, film replacement and patching the dings. I can't tell if the dings got through the film but it feels like it.

look at getting it replaced with the aero rear, comes prepainted and you end up with a better bumper for some price, maybe adding a hundred. several membranes have done that following getting rearended

I got rear ended and got cash for it from the guy. I used that plus like $150 out of my pocket to get the aero rear. It was awesome.

Nice I just picked up a 2012 BWP Special Edition automatic a few weeks ago and I love it. I test drove a manual S.E. and loved it. The manual in this car is amazingly smooth. If I were 10 years younger, I would have bought it

I'm pretty sure the clear protection film caught most of it. I think the ding in the bumper may be small enough that when I replace the protection film, I won't physically see it. I don't know yet.

While the Aero Rear is nice, the damage isn't significant enough to warrant a replacement. It looks like more of a patch job and/or protection film replacement. I do however like the Aero front :laugh: Isi's CU2 is making me
