Someone should figure out if Frosty has an instagram account and troll him there. He's probably trying to get rid of it through that particular avenue as well.

Yes, it's as good as you can get for a hack job worth $10K. Stay

Can't even get a response from him, yet he can post in other threads. How sad that this kid doesn't realize he is wrong.

Frosty.

What happened to you initially evoked sympathy from mostly everyone that followed your journey dealing with that nightmare of a situation.

Now, you go and do this. We don't need someone like you on AcuraZine.

Karma is a bitch....

He'd probably end up posting a novel, by the time we got done reading it, he would have sold the TL to some unsuspecting fool for $10k.

His novels are entertaining and distract me from work.

When searching autotrader and/ or cars.com a few weeks ago I saw him selling. There was no mention of a swap or any problems, it was for sale as an actual 6 speed tl not a swapped automatic. Seemed shady that there was no disclosure of any problems or that it was originally an automatic. I thought he may have at least replaced the case with the money he got back from Paul and was then going to try to sell it. Glad pushfour didn't get stuck with someone else's problems.

How in the world do you try selling a manual car with an automatic gauge cluster. I'd immediately be like "wtf is going on here?". As soon as I would see that, I'd be asking 562839472 questions as to what in the world is up with the car...

Oh trust me questions were asked. And as usual he replied with intelligent answers, on how the auto trans failed and how that for the little extra money he decided to upgrade to a 6mt. And said how much he loved it because it became more fun to drive.


Oi every time I go back to that conversation in my head I start getting steamed. Frosty

Yeah, if you need to find him, he's on a lot of other forums lol
He tried to help sell those LEDs like crazy, not bad because he's trying to help people know not to waste their money on cheap dim bulbs.

He's a good guy though, just messed up big time.
I don't think he needs harrassing, though.

Only guy he almost screwed over was pushfour, but now that's over, that guy bought another TL instead.
He just needs to change his ad, and until then, I'm sure whoever posted that craigslist ad saying the car's not clean will suffice and get the message across.

I actually texted back and forth with a long time member that has helped tremendously and we had similar experiences. Frosty would ask for help, then when you do...then questions your help...then quietly goes and solves the problem using your suggestion and never mentions a thank your or follow up. Also confirmed he let everyone suck his dick about modding everything himself and being so smart and so young and it wasn't all true...he did not do ALL his own mods all alone.


Trust me, this had gotten big enough to not be explainable. He wasn't coming back to redeem himself.

If you want to ask him, shoot him a msg on FB, you're still friends right?

He was helpful to my motor mounts install.

Listen, just cause someone annoys me, I don't write them off but I feel like I played the devil's advocate and he could have popped in to redeem himself and nada...out to dry. I have no problem with the guy...I still think he could do the right thing.

You would figure with all the time he has on his hands posting on all those forums, that he would ask Google "how to drive a manual transmission car for dummies". Glad he got banned. Not a single F*CK given today.

I bet he was the one that was actually selling those damn LEDs and not something that he came across on the interweb. This really is a sad story but honestly though, Frosty become an actor because you had us all fooled.

Seems a lot like it to me. Too involved to be just recommending it... friend or family or himself maybe.

Or maybe he felt like he discovered the next greatest alternative to HIDs, and knowing HIDs are a huge thing in the car world, he felt like he made a huge discovery and tried to share the word.

I don't know much, but I won't lie, I can understand why he thought he made a discovery of the century with a better replacement for HIDs.

HIDs are huge, one of the first mods people do to their cars.
Unfortunately most are used in halogen housing, but that's a different point.

Just giving him the benefit of the doubt.

It seems like he was the LED guy. By not admitting to being the seller, he doesn't have to pay any vendor fees on any forum. Away he goes, marketing his shit for free because he "found it on the interwebs". I dunno, maybe I'm jumping to conclusions, but he's already proved he is a greasy salesman. How else does a kid pay for mods?

Yeah, he's get wealthy parents, and I know wealthy parents have no issues buying nice cars for their kids... But I don't know any that pay for mods for their kids.

Just speculating. Doesn't really make a difference at this point.
