Question Junkyard

Curious as to what's the best part you guys ever got from junkyard tl's? Are they usually good places to get stuff? For example, what are the odds I can get a type s rear bumper to replace my base tl rear bumper for ssm.

^chances are you will not find what you're looking for.

junkyards are generally full of older model cars. you may get lucky and find something, but i wouldn't wait around forever for it.

i frequent my local junk yard at least once a month just to look around, and i've never even seen a 3G TL in there. maybe your area is different tho.

Guess what guys!
I have a local junk yard that houses Honda and Acura's!!
the guy is always buying torn up TL's!!!!

I've scored a radiator, brake lines. my buddy has gotten bumper plugs, and little small stuff that are missing on his TL.

I'm going back soon to score a s2k shift knob for $30.
probably buying 07 side mirrors for my buddy for christmas.

with that being said, the TL's that the junkyard buys are TOTALED. I wouldnt expect to see intact bumpers.
He does buy slightly wrecked TL's but he sells them WHOLE and he wont let us part it out.

I usually go to that junk yard when ever I FUCK something up on my TL.
I've fucked up the brake line and radiator. haha had to high tail it to the yard!!!

That's going to be tough.

Contact AckTL05. He is a vendor on here. I got side skirts for my CBP TL from him. See if he can help you out.

Only thing I ever got out of a junk yard was a sun roof for my old Maxima.

Justin, can you pm me the name and location of this magical place? I can't find a single yard in AZ that has a 3G TL.
