I took my Honda Civic off-roading. Did I cause any damage to my car?

So I accidentally took my 2012 Honda Civic on a off roading adventure the other day (don't ask, long story lol)

Drove through a shallow body of water about 1/2 foot deep and went up and down a moderately steep gravel road with lots of rocks for about a quarter of a mile or so. I didn't floor it or drive through any crazy rough terrain like over insanely huge rocks or potholes or anything, I drove as steady and conscientious as possible and got back on to the main road as soon as I could. In all it was a 15 minute off-road detour. My front license plate is bent a little from driving with low suspension and my car def needs a car wash but otherwise my car has been driving on the freeway for almost 100 miles since then smoothly with no issues.

Given the fact that I was driving fairly conservatively and for a comparatively short period of time I'm pretty sure the car is fine. But just thought I'd ask for a second opinion. Should I take the car in for an inspection on am I overthinking it?

Is it for a reason or just honda wants our cars to last shortly? Added (1).

Honda civic 07 plate Air Con problems?

I have an 07 plate Honda civic, I just had the air con recharge done today. The mechanic says there's no leaks and the gas is staying in but air won't blow cold. The engine is working as it should and the air is blowing but it's staying warm. Does anyone have any suggestions what it can be that's causing the air to stay warm.

Can I replace my OEM non-navigation head unit with a OEM navigation head unit?

The head unit for my 2017 Honda CR-V EX got damaged. Warranty won't cover it, and it will cost $2,000 to replace. I found a used 2017 Honda CR-V head unit online but it is for the trim that includes gps navigation. Can I replace my factory non-navigation with the factory navigation head unit? Even if the navigation won't work, would everything else work the same by just plugging it in? My head unit has touch screen controls to turn on or off blind spot motoring, automatic collision braking, door lock configuration, etc. Read more: https://hondanews.net/odyssey/can-i-replace-my-oem-non-navigation-head-unit-with-a.html
