Took the rear bumper off to cut/install my new 08 TLS lip and found out my bumper was fixed, NOT replaced.
When I had my 06 A-Spec body kit installed Dec 15, 08. I got a phone call From Acura telling me the holes for the rear lip were drilled in the WRONG place. They drilled where the back-up sensors go. I was told I would get a NEW bumper. They had the part but needed to paint it. They have the one of the BEST body shops in Northern IL. I call back 3 days later to find out they were having somrbody else paint the NEW 06 bumper??? Guess what??? When my son and I saw sand inside the NEW bumper,,, I was like ??? Then I noticed the bondo on the inside of the bumper. NOW I can SEE on the outside where it was FIXED NOT REPLACED. I was on the phone tonight with the Service Manager. I WANT A NEW REAR BUMPER,,,BUT NOW A TYPE-S BUMPER,,,THANKYOU.
Lets find out what happens tomorrow.
I even went out and bought ANOTHER CORDED Dremel. With a cutting kit, as my main Dremel is the awesome cordless one.
3 places to find gutter screen for the rear lip, and adhesive.

+3, lol. Should be 1 more week, hopefully, as in 30 minutes, we'll have had 2 weeks since Mike's post.

I went to Acura near me and they matched $277 + tax = $300 TOTAL.
I liked it because I went and picked it up instead of trying to be home when it was delivered. Plus my dealer got it the next day.

Nope. Mike will e-mail us letting know when to pay the remaining balance on the exhausts. I'm expecting he'll give us a shout by the end of next week at the most.

I've seen their trucks on the road before, but never used them for anything! Good luck...

^ Last run of quad exhausts is accounted for as other members have said. Sorry for posting to this and bumping it up to the top... ARGH I hate seeing the update. I'm not checking this thread anymore till Mike contacts me. BAH!

Shouldn't be too much longer. We've made it a month, we can make it another week.
