I recently picked up a 2017 FWD Advance.

What are your favorite accessories?

I've purchased the following accessories so far:
- All Weather Mats
- Cargo Tray
- Cargo Cover
- Cargo Net

Am I missing any essentials? Thanks in advance!

You're probably missing rain deflectors

Where did you buy these accessories? Did you shop around for the best price?

SandwichViking

Good call.

Which brand did you go for on the rain deflectors?

Did you go for the OEM option?

SandwichViking

I did it in two ways:
1. Waited for a good Ebay coupon and then ordered from an out-of-state dealership via eBay (Curry Acura was the seller, I believe, but there are many actual Acura/Honda dealerships on eBay).
2. Provided the best pricing I could find to my local Acura dealership. They were willing to match pricing on some items (cargo net, all-weather mats)

If you aren't in any rush, just wait for a 15% or 20% off coupon from eBay and pick up the lot of them - should be less than 50% of MSRP, with coupon.

Let me know if you find any other good options!

Not OEM, i puchased these instead (with glue) : https://www.cafr.ebay.ca/itm/182222811659?ul_noapp=true (but it looks like they are out of stock actually). They are pretty good and fit well with my RDX 2014.
I hoped to get ones from weathertech (without the glue) but they don't have any for the RDX (maybe for new models, you may want to check).
One thing for sure, once i installed them, i really wondered how i could use a car without them !

Does anyone have the bumper protector on their RDX? Any thoughts? Is it worth $57?

Highly recommended to protect the paint. I also have the clear bra on the front bumper, whole hood, mirrors and front quarter panels. It saves a lot of abuse on the paint.

I didn't know there was other clear protectors. I did a Google search, but it just returned a bug protector for the hood. Where would you buy the other protectors?
Are you able to remove the protectors without causing any paint damage? Or, are they considered permanent?
