So just a small update, I pick up the custom plate for the KBP despite bought it back in September last year lmao.... still awaiting for a new set of seat cover replacement on the way home, during the past couple of week I been collect from TL relic lately lol.
Bought a new set of front+rear OEM Type S side marker and a seat of rear OEM Type S tail light. I will be sending the current set on the KBP for custom work.
Easter weekend some NBP Type Slow "accidentally" slide in my garage. If you notice the left is Type S ONLY and right side is for Base. I was thinking this is Honda assembly line
The good thing is this TL even come with one free Fakexican to work on my newly purchase TL. @Pho The Nguyen has stop by and pay a visit to the TL doctor, after the diagnostic report by me turn out the car need to be "part out" lol.
Couple items where low or need to be replaced, along with an oil change. He quickly learn that stay away from quick lube places, right after the oil change the battery decide to not working anymore. Luckily I had my Audew portable jump start so no he the first one.
That epic photo shoot again.
People was thinking AZ meet Houston chapter again lol.
He on spring and yet lower than my BC coil lmao....
I was torn beside sending the steering wheel to Dallas Custom to rewrap the steering wheel and trying out the "China" CF wheel. Don't worry I didn't even paid close to $750. No core deposit was needed and it came with all the button and control as seen below. Unfortunately I will have to swap all the control and button for Type S one since they come with Base.
Today was a beautiful day.
Score this rear MRP lip and bumper for way cheaper than typical FB group asking price lol. It came with majority hardware and seem to be like in original paint, I will be install this one the MRP after a visit to paint shop.
Saturday double Type S rear lip.

Im so happy to see another TL enthusiast helping out his community

I was kidding.
I never knew his name.
I just called him best 3G buddy in my phone.
Now I can duplicate his identittay. That's all.
Bro, if there was ever an enthusiast that needs no introduction
or justification it would be a guy with 6 of these things.

Thea, please return my text. I need to have a talk with you about your 05 SSM.
If Thea and I can agree on price, I’ll buy a one-way ticket to Houston today for April 30.

Take your meds, Alecs...
Truonthe is a good guy, very forthright in my experience.
The car is what he says it is. Pay him what y'all agreed to...
accept that it's a used car and will likely have some unforeseen issues
and drive it home happily. Simple transaction. Flying off the handle
ahead of time might turn him off.

You do a Jekyll and Hyde thing when you perceive you've been wronged and you do it before you
confirm that that's the case which sends people RUNNING in the opposite direction. I'm not saying
you should take meds but you certainly should give how you deal with people and emotions some
thought.
I have firsthand experience with this as I'm sensitive and also explosive when angry.

I am 100% agree with you, This is why I give you a head up upon sale that the plate will be removed so you can obtain a temporary plate in a timely manner (2 weeks from now). Not that I don't rust you but per my standard protocol when selling a vehicle locally or out of state, as I don't need to explaining to tolling authority later on (yes even with a bill of sale the toll will be billing to plate original register) especially the car will be driving through multiples states.
Per our conversation over the phone I provided to the best of my knowledge issues that need to be address, hence the discount I provided below your offer price. Also do to the time zone difference I DO NOT want to text or call people at night/ early morning.
As we discussed I also give you the option to have the car shipping and gladly will work with shipping carrier as myself had shipped multiple cars across multiple states in the lower 48, I even offered a full inspection from Acura since you mentioned that you will be taking it home for a 2200 miles journey home for a piece of mind. As I told you full transparency is everything I wanted, I do not wanted any fall out after the deal has been finalized.
As for trust, I deal with plenty AZ veteran member from east to west coast and locally. So far none ever had any problem when dealing with me when come to transaction.
Now I am not ghosting you nor stating anything about back out the deal, if you still wish to purchase the car with plate being removal upon sale please let me know. If you want to proceeding another route also please let me know, thank you
