I'm Baaaaaaack
We'll after 4 years off with my 2005 Desert Mist TL, I decided to get another one. I have been looking for about 3 months and finally found a 2008 NBP TL-S one owner in perfect condition with zero mods. Look forward to starting the process over again and getting more input from the rest of the crew on the board.
This is my last ride that was sold a while back
And this is the starting point for my new TL-S.
And the Best Part......
Took forever to find another 6-spd well worth it, already have parts on the way!

I have the Acura carbon fiber interior pieces for around the cup holders, seat switches and the rear AC coming, along with a CF steering wheel. Also, all hyper white LED's inside and above the l plate. 2012 Navi Disc, and yes the A-Spec kit hopefully all shipping tomorrow. Not a bad start

Welcome back desper. I always bring up your car and doughboy's car when people discuss DMM.
Congrats on the new ride. Looking forward to see what you do with this one.

Thank you very much, it was very hard to part with it.. Still to this day I have never seen another DMM with black / cf interior and a 6 spd. Glad to be back, and cant wait to get started on my new ride

You had one of the best looking and rarest DMM TL there ever was and ever will be. Congrats on the new TL-S.

Congrats on the new ride. I'm jealous of the 6MT.

^ I agree...if DMM came with black interior I'd like it a whole lot more. I'm a tan interior hater.

Your previous TL was incredible. And was probably the rarest type of 3G TL ever made. I doubt Acura made more than a few hundred DMM/Ebony/6MTs. What car did you switch to after it?
The new TL-S looks great! Anxious to see what you do to it.

Drove down to meet up with Marcus at Heeltoe to have my A-Spec kit installed and also got the window's tinted 20%. So far so good, brakes will be next followed by new coilovers.
