KW Variant 1 Coilovers for Acura 3rd Gen (Type S)

Hey guys. For sale are my set of KW Coilovers. They were on my 2007 TL Type S for about 10k miles and are in great condition. They were installed and uninstalled by a high-end shop here in Miami, FL.

The coilovers are simply amazing, what can I say. The ride is great, comfortable yet sporty, and the handling improved greatly. I dont know if you guys are that familiar with KW, but they are probably one of the most premium manufactures of coilovers. All of the BMW, Porsche, Mercedes, and a lot of other car guys use them, and they even make OEM suspension systems for a lot of high-end car manufactures.

I bought them for $1,290 last year and would like to get $675 for them. I still have all of the original receipts, and since KW has a lifetime warranty, that is important to have.

The shock bodies are all stainless steel btw, so they stand up to abuse, road salt, etc.

PM me if you have any questions, or email me at scarfaceaka187@aol.com

I'll take pics of them tomorrow!

Thanks guys.

- Leo

Hey guys, figure about $50-60 to ship to the West Coast, and $30-40 to the East coast.

I could ship these no problem, and will extend any discounts from using my buddies Fed Ex account.

Yup, these would fit a base TL as well. Both TL S and TL's have the same KW part number for Variant 1: 10251002. I just looked it up on their site.

I'll update with pics tonight, still at work

Could these be retrofitted to a 98-02 accord? I was under the impression the difference between 98-02 and 03-07 accord coilovers were the top hats, and 3rd gen TLs were similar/identical to the 03-07 accords.

I got home really late last night guys, my bad. I'll post them today, no worries.

I'm really not sure on the Accord retrofit to be honest, but if anyone knows, please chime in!

If something happens to the strut bodies, KW should honor the warranty. Worst case just let me know and I can email them, it's not a biggie. I'm including the receipt as well, so it should be fine.

And to Ron-A, thanks for giving everyone a heads up that I have 50 posts or less. I'll provide tracking as soon as anyone pays, and we can use Pay Pal so that there is protection for the buyer and the myself. If we do Pay Pal, please help with the fees - they are KILLER.

Thanks everyone!

- Leo

Maybe he's waiting for paypal to clear or something else has happened.

I sent him a PM to find out more about this.

Don't file a paypal claim yet and hold off on the accusations until we find out what's going on.

5 days and hes a scammer? Remind me to not sell anything to you. Have patience. People have lives and can't always get to the post office. And Miami to Nashville takes 3 days UPS (shipped between there a lot in the past.)

I know it sounds kinda shady guys, but decivs has not resonded to me by email, for 5 days. The paypal has already cleared and has been deducted from my account already.

He PMed me on acurazine until the funds cleared, and since then I have not heard a word from him. No tracking number, no email, not anything.

If I am in the wrong here, I apologize.

Don't mean to make anyone look bad, just want everyone to be trustworthy.
