Took home our 2014 after totaling the 2012.

It looks so naked without the proper accessories.

Rear LEDs look sharp at night. Do you have a pic of the Jewel Eye LEDs at night?

Congrats! It's good that you went with another Advance model. It's great to know that the CMBS technology did it's job when the need arose.

It is painted body color as well as the splash guards.

As far as accessories, I just plan on putting on advance side steps, body side guards, and fog lights. I don't think I need the roof rack since I've never used those.

Based on the wheels shown on the photo above, and the lack of rear parking sensors, it must be a Tech or Tech/Ent package.

Yer right, it is only an SH-Tech/RES

We couldn't wait for the Advance in September. We needed a car right away. I would have loved to get an ADvance with Rear Entertainment.

For now this car is pretty AWESOME. No regrets at all.

Sounds like this is the first official "non-Acura" mod that's been posted in the 3G forum!

In another thread he mentioned getting an Advance, I didn't know about the change in plans and didn't really look at the pics... my bad.

I had the dealer take the rear trim piece and the mud guards to their paint shop to have it match the Diamond White. They were awesome to do it before delivery all at no charge. This was my 6th Acura purchase from them of course and I do all the service at the dealer.
