Found her, Got her.

I finally found a 08 with good mileage and for a good price. Took a couple of months, but I'm finally back in a TL tech pkg. Love her, Lady Pearl.

PS. Image quality of a BlackBerry.

Congrats Check out the 3G garage for tons of info. Also register your TL at www.myacura.com in the USA or https://www.myacura.acura.ca/myAcura...ToLoginPage.do in Canada. Save your Navi and Radio codes there. Check for any recalls your TL may need.

Thanks everyone! I paid 23 after taxes and all that junk, with 30k on her. As for the tints, I was saying the same thing to myself but no I don't think I'm going to. I feel like the sun shade evens out all of the windows.

you should take it to a tint shop they have meters where they can read how dark the tint is, and then u can get it matched on the front windows if thats what you are trying to do ... although i doubt it will match 100 percent as aged tint no matter what changes color slightly, but im pretty sure the mismatch will be unnoticable in general

Thanks for the info, but I don't think I'm going to tint the car anyways.

the are similar but they are still diff. if u look at the foglight area on the type s in looks like this /\ while on the base it looks like this \/ ... i know that is very vague but just look at it u will be able to see it.

then type S's have a sort of lip-like looking thing on the sides, which the base does not have
