Help me identify this bumper

Guys,
Back in March I bought what I believed was a second gen CL bumper....Well, two weeks ago I took it to the body shop, they sanded it, they filled in some imperfections...and it isn't even the right bumper! The seller claims he sent me the right one, and I may be trying to pull some scam ( although I have never scammed anyone in my 27 years).

So now I have this unidentified Acura/Honda bumper and the seller claims he sent me the right one...Now I guess I will just try and sell it and take the loss...I hate when people don't stand behind what they sell....Christ I sell numerous things on eBay (under MC222) and I have NEVER scammed a single person...this just frustrates me! the more I type, the angrier I get!

Please help me identify what car this bumper belongs to so I can sell it

What year is your CL?

My guess: Different bumpers after the MMC

send him pictures of the bumper he sent and TL pics to prove he sent you the wrong one. He should recognize what he sold you so he can't claim your lying to him.
