I purchased my 2014 TL SH-AWD 6MT TECH in November of last year.
Today, I discovered that all four underbody plugs are missing (they were never installed). I also never received the front bumper plugs that are removed by the dealer when installing the front license plate.
Both of these items are shown on page 7 of TSB 13-031 under the following sections:
Install the Front License Plate Holder
Install the Underbody Plugs

I contacted my dealer service director today and he is going to contact the dealer who did the TQI (as it was a dealer trade) and see if they still have all of the parts. If not, he is going to order them for me.
The underbody plugs are part of the noise-reduction package. They play a large role in reducing road noise.
It will be interesting to see if there is a significant reduction in road noise with the underbody plugs installed. Although, it will be very subjective without a dB meter.
Anyone else missing the four underbody plugs and/or never received the front bumper plugs?
Another case of a poor TQI by the dealer. :(
