i decided to check out copart for a salvaged manual TL in preparations for my AT/MT swap and came across this car that clearly has Jnc headlights. I Just know this car has to be here on AZ. the webpage does not decribe damadge other than previous repair. I want to find the person who owned this to ask a few questions about why the car is at a salvaged car auction. here are some images and the link

originally i was gonna check out junkyards and such but buying a salvaged car has it pros...can get the brembo brakes and i can hook up AZ with what ever extra parts remain and make a lil money back. So does anyone know whos car this belongs to

That's weird.. the car looks fine cosmetically.

I wonder what happened as well.

Fatfrii

strange isnt it?

it says estimated repair cost is ~7k and the primary damage is "previous repair"

goodoldayz

water damage maybe ? or maybe the engine is hydrolocked? if thats the case he should have tried stripping it first.

Just an FYI, it doesn't have to be made by jnc, I work on many headlights myself as a side job and that looks like a typical Blackhousing that any headlight modder can do. I often do headlight work for people who don't even go on forums much.

However that carbon fiber hood looks familiar, I might have seen it on a local craigslist for sale.... Yea im pretty sure I did because I remember the color matched stripes in the side. Looks like he didn't sell it cuz it's still with the car lol

Anyone else notice the filled-in A-Spec lip up front?

I recognize it but I have no idea who it belonged to.

Thats a KB1Spec CF lip.

I would be interested in the hood and the KB1Spec lip, should you purchase.

they probably blew the eninge from the SC

There was a member in the San Diego area (iirc) that had a hood like that - CF with color matched paint. Don't remember if it was Silver (ASM/SSM) or AM though.

i know the headlights dont have to be from Jnc or ack. lots of people do it themselves in tiher own homes. BUT WHO IN THIER RIGHT MIND STICKS A FREAKIN SET OF HEADLIGHTS IN THE OVEN BEFORE BROWSING THROUGH AZ! hahahaha seriously thats the power of AZ its brainwashing

i think what makes this TL stand out the most is the painted hood

Damn that hood does look familiar

Looks pretty sharp! That's a good auction site although I prefer iaai dot com, they're just a bit more specific with the car's damage.

Fatfrii

so are you allowed to pull parts from this car? or are they only selling the car as whole?

Fatfrii

ok just talked to someone who knows these things....previous repair means someone bought it fixed it and put it back for sale here. this thing is not gonna be sold at a parts car price.
