Hi Friends,
This is my first new car that I have bought. I am 23 and got a Make; 2023 Civic Hatchback, Model; Sport Touring, Color; Smokey Mauve Pearl. I was wondering where is the best place to get accessories for the car and for that color? Also any recommendations about car care. I plan to own this car for at minimum of 5 years hopefully around 10 years. I plan to do some mods and accessory additions that do not void warranties and would also like help with that.

Congrats man! Purchasing your first new car at 23 is an achievement! I didn't buy my first new car until 44, a 23 SI in Sonic Grey. I'm new to modding, so I have little feedback in that dept, but there's alot of people on here with alot of knowledge and a ton of info online. Got a photo?
Congrats on the purchase! I’m basically on the same boat. My first and only other car is a 2004 Santa Fe so this is a major upgrade. Got a 2023 Sport Touring in White with already 13k miles and love every bit of it. Accessories I’ve gotten are either OEM or from Amazon. For the interior: I have Lasfit floor mats from amazon but there are many options now than when I first got my car; I have the OEM back seat protector but you can get cheaper ones off Amazon; I got 30% tint on the sides/back and 70% on the windshield (ceramic). For exterior: I have a OEM bumper protector for hatchbacks; I have a duckbill spoiler from amazon (I prefer the simpler ones); and I’m about to add a front lip from Amazon (OEM is a bit expensive for what you get); I also used “glossy” plastidip for the emblems. So far that’s everything I’ve done and I’m looking into doing more mods under the hood by the end of the year. Don’t be afraid to do a lot of research first about what you want to do instead of spontaneous purchasing and end up not liking it. Good luck man!

Congrats on your new Civic, that's awesome! If you're looking for accessories, you can check out websites like Amazon or eBay. They have a wide variety of stuff and you can usually find good deals. If you're looking for accessories in your car's specific color, maybe try looking at specialty stores or websites that cater to that color.
