I purchased 2024 Honda CRV and discovered it does NOT have upper engine cover. All my previous cars had always an engine cover. Is this standard for Honda to not have engine cover? If yes, do you recommend to buy one or is it waste of money?

 

All a cover does is hide everything and makes the engine bay look nice. Many Honda's didn't come with covers. Personally, since I worked on Hondas and cars in general for most of my adult life, it's a waste of time and money. Money to buy it and time to install and take it off every time you need to go into the engine bay. Forget that. Use that money for something else for the CRV like nice Weathertech floor mats.
