Brought home a 2024 Ridgline Sport a couple weeks ago. Never expected to love this thing as much as I do, but it's been awesome so far. I even named him Jiraiya.

My rest of my stable consists of a FK8 Civic Type R (garage queen) and a GK5 Fit (daily), so planning to turn the Ridgeline into a road trip/light adventure rig.

A couple gas station pics from the day after I brought him home:

Installed the first few mods after 2 weeks:

  • HPD Mud Flaps
  • HPD Grille
  • Lamin-x Yellow Fog Light Protectors
  • Rear Under Seat Cargo Tray
  • Rear Seat Trailsport Cargo Hooks
  • In-bed Trunk Tray
  • Honda 'Power of Dreams' License Plate Frame

Was a little nervous about removing the front bumper of a basically brand new truck, but figured it wouldn't be any more difficult than on my other cars. Grille and fog light protector install took about 3 hours due to me taking my time and being extra careful. Kinda on the fence about getting the HPD fender flares and decals since the truck already looks good without them. I also feel like just having the grille brings a bit of subtlety that the full HPD kit doesn't do - especially since I plan on getting a bed rack pretty soon.

Pictures below:

Very nice & like your mods! I think you will enjoy your truck for many years.

Can you post a picture of the trunk tray? Nice ridgeline. It's yours so do what you want, but I'm with researcher, no flares or extra decals!

Disclaimer: I'm a minimalist. Even the factory badging was too much for me.

I have nostalgia for 90's style side decals, so I kinda like the HPD stuff. My family had a 90's Passport with rally-style stickers from factory growing up. At least with the grille and mudflaps it's subtly different enough from 99% of everyone else's Ridgelines. But agree that the fenders aren't really necessary. Thinking of just sticking with the lower door trim and calling it a day.

I was originally going to get a '23, but the fact that it has the same infotainment and dash as my parents' '16 Pilot was a dealbreaker. I also like the RIDGELINE tailgate and I imagine if the rumored gen 3 comes out in a year or two, it will make these a little rarer on the roads.

Love my white one too. White does not show the dirt, etc.. as much. I personally would not do the HPD stripes or wheel mouldings as they break up the lines of the truck. Just my opinion though. :unsure:

It's regretfully showing a lot of pollen this time of year, but TBH a dirty white truck is still a good looking truck. Lol

That RIDGELINE billboard on the tailgate is interesting. Hope they go a different route with the Gen3. Nice ridge though, I like the new interior minus them sticking with the push button gear shifter.
