It seems that all we have for the cargo bay is the cargo net. I didn't even see the cargo cover in the U.S. website. You're so lucky...

And congratualations!...you've reached 400 posts. Damn!! I'm lagging behind, hehe.
Yeah, I know. Going overboard on the carbon fiber will just ruin the whole look of the car since I'm NOT trying for the "riced out look". The side mirrors and outside doors would end up making my Sport look like a DX (not so good), and I can just imagine the cost of the interior door grip pieces! Besides, it would be too much since I already have the door switch trim. I haven't abandoned the idea of the B-pillars but want to SEE it in person before deciding. My sister's best friend works in Parts at a Honda dealership so....

400 hey?

You're joking right? You do have all those online websites (College Hills, Bernardi, Handa) where you can get accessories for much cheaper. Not an option up here in Canada-land. Besides, there's an accessory brochure for the US posted somewhere on this forum which does show the cargo cover and all the other accessories I got for my car.

Also, did you read my gripe about how my Sport (MORE expensive than your Sport) has NO map lights and NO gear indicator? Oh and we don't even have the option of getting Navi/stability control/audio controls on steering wheel. "You're so lucky"....bah.....

Yes, Handa, College Hills and Shop 365 all have the same Honda accessories which includes a lot. I think JDM was shopping at his/her local dealer, or the Honda accessory pamphlet which doesn't advertise a lot of stuff.

Forgive me. I'm a noob when it comes to new Hondas. I'm used to buying parts for my DB8.

Oh you're forgiven. I'm just jealous at the extras the US Sport gets vs. my Canadian one. You do have alot more (and cheaper) options down there and I'm sure any US Honda dealer sells the exact same accessories as I got up here in Canada. They may not all be posted on the Honda US website, but you just need to ask a Honda dealer.

.......... and accessory #13, OEM Honda locking gas cap (part #17680-SAA-G00 = $56.43 CAD at Honda dealership but rumor has it Canadian Tire carries this too????). For background first, something odd happened to my car last Wedneday late evening. When I was ready to leave for work Thursday, my "check fuel cap" message was on. Weird since last time I refueled was Saturday! I checked the cap and noted a drip of fuel on the car. Then, when I refueled that morning, my gas mileage calculation was 10 MPG off (26 MPG vs. my typical 36 MPG). Obviously someone siphoned gas from my car. I frantically called my local Honda dealership, no Honda does NOT make a locking gas cap. Hmm...checked here, go the part # and ordered through Newmarket Honda. Part came in Friday, had installed (FREE) yesterday, and used it for the first time this AM. NO problem! Much less of a hassle than I'd anticipated....
