New TL owner

I purchased a TL at the auctin guys and Im currently in the process of fixing it...

Do you guys know where I could possibly get a head for a good price.

I was interested in the Lip kits for front and rear bumper, any idea where I could look into getting a nice one...Of seen a few on the pics here but not sure if they are factory or not...

Cant wait to get this bad boy running....Its a white 05 TL...I'll get some pics up soon...

Thanks for all the help

No idea where to get a head, would be nice if there was some kind of online registry for junkyards allowing you to search for what they have, but as far as I know such a thing doesn't exist. You can always go to the acura dealer...

What's all wrong with your TL, just the engine? I look forward to seeing pictures.

At this point just getting the car up and running is the priority. After that is MODDING time!
