These were so much irritating that while Honda ASC changed the front bumper and they mentioned that they won't be able to move the front parking sensors to the new bumper - I was relieved.

Do you have any better recommendations?

I’ve also heard mixed feedback about front parking sensors. When I test-drove the Verna, I found them useful, though I understand it just takes some time to get accustomed to a new car’s length.
What’s your opinion—should I get them installed? Are they helpful, or are they overly sensitive? I’m still waiting for confirmation from the dealer on whether they’re part of the OEM accessories.
One concern I have is that installing them might require opening up the bumper and head unit, which makes me a bit nervous. I’ve had some bad experiences with Indian car and bike service centers, and I worry they might mess up something that’s already working fine.

Also, could you suggest a good dash cam setup? I’ve seen that Honda includes one as part of their accessories—any feedback on that would be appreciated.
What other accessories would you recommend? Thanks!

Fitted rear spoiler (Honda original accessory - costs 13.5K) yesterday and it completes the third year accessory additions and modifications of my 2021 5th gen V variant. Fitted it from Dakshin Honda Bangalore and it was a worst decision. Luckily I went to the accessory fitting area when there was a delay in completing the work. Workmanship is very poor and they even drilled an extra hole at wrong location first. Had to stand next to them to guide/scold them to correct and fit it properly the second time. It was very anxious couple of hours for me. They tried to fool me even after making many mistakes.

Looks excellent with the spoiler

-ves
Boot lid is heavy now due to added weight
Minor painting issue at one corner
Workmanship and work ethics of the dealer technicians/accessory sales staffs are very very poor.

Verdict
Not recommended

I will keep an eye on it and fix it on my own if there are any issues.
