Tow Hitch on 19 Advance

Does anyone have a picture of how the factory tow Hitch looks installed on the 2019 Advance since lower trim is now body colored instead of black?

I'm assuming the tow Hitch cut out for 2019 is still black so you'd have an all painted bumper with a black cut out in the middle for the Hitch?

The lower bumper piece is only color-matched on the Sport Hybrid. The normal "gas" MDX has a black piece there, so the piece included with the tow hitch matches perfectly.

Acura doesn't make a painted piece for the Hybrid, as the Hybrid has NO tow rating.

Not on the 2019 Advance models, that was a new change for 2019.

So for 2019 both Sport Hybrid (any package) and non-sport hybrid Advance models each have body colored bottom trim/garnish.

For 2017 and 2018 you are correct only Sport Hybrid had color matching trim.

If that's the case, then a 2019 with tow hitch would still look similar to a 2018, as the bottom piece would be black.

That's what I assumed, tow Hitch would still be a black cut out. I posted asking if anyone has a picture of a Hitch installed on a 19 Advance or had one installed to confirm what it looks like.

So looking for anyone who has physically seen it on 19 Advance or has a 19 Advance with tow Hitch installed
