Not necessarily performance oriented, but quality of life focused warranty friendly?

What have you done to improve your car's quality of life?

So far I've done the following on my 2017 Si Sedan:

1. Tinted windows
2. OEM Honda high wall rubber floor mats.
3. Knock off door entry scuff plates from Amazon.
4. Factory mudflaps (came with the car)

I'm considering upgrading the headlights/fights To LEDs.

What other "Quality of Life" unprecedented can you think of?

3M door edge guards.
Second this. I actually purchased two sets, and ran the second set on the bottom of the door. Nothing worse than when someone on the passenger side doesn't pay attention and curbs your door. Also...

LED headlights, fog lights, interior lights and backup lights.
Husky Floor Liners
trunk organizer (not exactly high tech)
Thorough understanding of the center console and all of it's configurations LOL

Ventureshield clear bra. We do around 24K/yr and needed good protection for the nose, lights, trunk lip and side mirrors.

Tint will likely come before next summer. Considering LEDs, either full factory swap or projector inserts.

Haven't ruled out a tune and intake. But want to see how the motors handle deposits before taking the plunge.

I am really thinking about those led lights.

For the fog's, how difficult is the access?

Very easy. Turn your front wheels all the way in, depending on the side. Remove three screws for the inner wheel well. Reach in and pull out the bulb. I had both of mine changed in a few minutes.

How do you like the rear seat cover? I drive for uber and lyft, and need something to protect my rear seat from the ungodly passengers. Lol
