Good deal on those base 07 lights in the BM.
Too bad I don't like how the tail area looks pink when the led's are on parking.
I also despise clear lenses on the back...all red, or type s. I thought about opening both and darkening the clear or putting some dark vinyl over it...but nightshades looks bluish over clear plastic and the insides already have issues with heat and warping so I kinda want to leave well enough alone. I mean, I DO already have 3 tails to choose from.

I could fix them up and flip them...but I kinda don't feel like even going on the mission.

Rained off and on yesterday. Heavy storms starting around 5 onwards and everyones cell phones keep beeping with area flood warnings.

It was pretty wild, last night I went out with some knuckleheads from work and at one point the whole bar started beeping as everyone's phone got the NWS flood warning at the same time.

In for more of the same today and this weekend.

I've just been establishing eye contact with people for an uncomfortably long time before whispering "watch your six".

They don't get it but I laugh.

Justin, you're all lucky you have your mother.
If she didn't exist, your brother and you would probably have killed off blanket on accident, started a meth lab that only produced mid grade fertilizer (and you both would be like wtf, we followed the instructions!), and would probably never bathe.

Bless that woman's heart.

YOU DONT NEED MORE TAILS!


but if you're seriously interested, I can pick them up for you and work some thing out so you save on shipping. (Pick them up, Check them with me to work, then ship them from here ). Should save some money's .

No way, Johnny...thanks, man.
I wouldn't put someone else on that much of a mission ever.
Plus, I don't need them...what am I gonna do with some base 07 tails? Although they've never been seen on a KBP, I'm sure.

They're 08 tails



does that change things?

It wouldn't even be trouble at all to be honest.

The dude lives in Long Beach which is a stone's throw a way, there's a Fedex next door to my hotel in Atlanta.

LMK.

105K
APP Sensor
PCV valve
mirror actuator
transmission switches
compliance bushings and other LCA bushing

It doesn't seem all that much cheaper, am i crazy ? It's supposed to be a hook up deal.

hook up deal looks more like whole sale price.
which can be found from the online vendors, ie; Acura Parts | Genuine Acura OEM Parts | Acura Parts Cheap

Probably just going to get the Aisin kit on rock auto or amazon and wait for one of the vendors to have a sale and be better off. Or I'll try and ask my bro to find another dealer hookup

Nothing wrong with the Aisin kit. Those prices on the parts list you posted, seemed about right for a discounted cost. I use oemacuraparts.com (TIM) to get most of my items.

So I was at SAMs club last night and bought that Dove soap that Johnny talked about. I used it before, but I don't remember it making me feel that clean.

Shit was so good I probably rubbed the black off of me.

Yeah it's pretty well known and used all around here I just figured if I had a decent hookup, then it'd be worth it for "OEM". Thanks for the jnput!

Also got your PM, working on it
