I've bought every aftermarket part from Tim. I got my WW Spoiler, Comptech Sways and Exaust from him. Being the bargin shopper that I am, I still look at other places to check prices but I end up going to Thim cuz his prices always ended up lower.

Also, his customer service is awesome! What place will usually give you a response within the hour???

Without a doubt I buy all my parts from Tim. I don't even bother to shop around or ask around as no one can beat his prices. I live in Florida so I have to pay sales tax but that is a small price to pay for the service and courtesy I get from him. Not to mention that when we went fishing a few months back he installed my AEM Cold air intake for me . Talk about service! Tim is the man for your TL/CL and soon to be all car parts. www.autocarparts.com is gonna take off. Especially after the attention that his booth got at Hot Import Nights.

I'm not actually a TL or a CL owner, but I've bought parts from Tim for my V6 Accord. I got my Comptech headers about 2 months ago, and Apexi coilovers just last week from him. His customer service is unbeatable and his prices are low.

I've bought my wood trim kit, and inspire fog light switch from tim very quick service! No complaints what so ever. Next are sways, and front rotors! And if he sold the factory kit i would get that from him.

I've never actually ordered anything from Tim yet, I was gonna order the sways for my TL, before it crashed. Now, I gotta wait on the mods, til I get the TL fixed up again, but for sure, I will get the parts from him.

I e-mailed him a few times for questions and he got back to me really quickly. I like that. Very good honest guy.

I bought my Inspire tail lights from Snook and they got here on time, just as he promised, I would buy from him again, which shall be the Comptech headers . . . maybe an acura-tl license plate holder if he sells them.

Just to echo the sentiments of the above replies, Tim is the best. I bought Comptech exhausts, springs and my very hard-to-get Versus wheels! All delivered as promised and great follow-thru and customer service!!!!

All mods listed below are from Tim. The shopping experience was nice and easy. The only this is the backorder on the Comptech swaybars (which is not Tim's fault)! Tim is a great guy from what I can tell and very customer oriented.....highly recommended!

I have bought AEM CAI, Comptech headers and Mugen exhausts from Tim. The custormer service was very good, he was very responsive to my emails and informative. Prices seem good to me.

Tim did have some shipping problems with the Mugen exhausts but it all worked out to my satisfaction. The only reason the problems arose in the first place was because Tim was trying to rush the order to meet my deadlines.

I will definitely continue to order from him exclusively.

I've bought my Volk Racing Versus rims from him. His customer service is pretty good. He responds to emails very promptly. I will buy more parts from him later. I'm hoping to get discounts as a repeat customer! Thanks, Tim!

I've bought all my Comptech parts and my Inspire Tails from Tim. He had the lowest price and made special arrangements for me to pick up the parts from Comptech (no shipping charges)! Great customer service! Very satisfied!

I got my Inspire tails from Tim after emailing him like a dozen times (I did not know about this forum back then) He was prompt in responding to all my questions and concerns. I did n't even shop price with him b/c you can't get this kind of service anywhere else!

I now have brake pads and rotors coming from him, and again he responded to me emails quickly, answering my questions before i ordered. I HIGHLY recommend buying everything new from Tim and Acura-TL.com /Acura-CL.com & autocarparts.com!

Bought Comptech springs from Tim. It was at that time when everybody (including Comptech) were out of stock for springs and he still found one set in Canada (!) so I got them soon. Great service!

Every purchase gets better and better. He takes care of repeat customers in my opinion cuz he HOOKED ME UP! My wheels were suppose to get to me via UPS Ground (5 days), Snook changed to to FedEx cuz he knew I wanted them quick...talk about great customer service. His phone is always available for any questions!
