Need to sell my Type S factory exhaust that came off my 2007 Acura TL-S, and I thought I would give any of you local guys first crack if you're interested before I list it on the black market.

This is the full exhaust set-up pictured, and it's in great shape. It came off the car when my car had 21,000 miles on it.

I'm not shipping this bad boy, so you have to pick it up! I'm in Rochester, MN.

This MUST go, so I am willing to entertain all reasonable offers. The first reasonable offer will take it, and payment is expected within 1 week. Simply PM me if you're interested and want to shoot me an offer.

If you have questions regarding the exhaust let me know, and I'll do my best to answer.

I have an RV6 V3 jpipe for sale and a pair of custom CDM Taillights as well if anyone is interested. I'll get some pics of the jpipe up tonight you would need new hardware and gakset which can be bought from Richie http://rv6-p.com/hardware.html

MN-Acurazine would do just fine I think, but how many people will actually get a spot? I will for sure

I haven't signed up yet. We'll have to see what Jorge says because I believe him and another guy were the only few of us in the VIP lot last year. I honestly don't see it being very nice this year unfortunately. I still have about 4 feet of snow in my backyard lawn furniture is still buried by the fire pit lol.

Proper grammar/spelling ftw.

In other news, is winter over yet? This whole cold thing really sucks.

Also, any of you dudes with a black TL-S with (currently) black wheels with snow tires work in Plymouth at a certain very large building off of 169?

Thank you all for your respects former my mother. It is good to be back home I just wish this damn snow would go away. As for the B4B what do we have to do or has anyone checked to do a group thing. This way we can all part together in one spot.

So i just spoke with Jeff at MAP, all we have to do is go to their register page and sign up, tell them how many cars will be attending as a group in the comment. Pay the deposit, then they will reseve a spot for us. It doesnt matter which package we choose.

well, i decided to not go oem and got a "mugen" lip and now I'm having stupid issues with paint matching. Anyone know of any other place that does paint mixing other than napa? Ive gone to them twice and this is the result, dont think i want to go back. I used to get paint from GT parts and paint company but they closed shop in south saint paul and their new show in Saint Paul seems to be under construction. The first mix they gave me was super dark, now this one is close but still too bluish and not gray enough. Every paint shop I've gone to has quoted at least $150+ just to paint the lip but now I'm hesitant to their paint matching skills too. Seems like Acura anthracite metallic is a bitch ass color to match and paint. I wish I had a more simple color damnit.

yes they're oem CDM (Chinese domestic market) but modded as well. This is what they look like stock form.


I bought them from Ack (Bruce) last spring for $350 plus shipping, so I'm asking $300 for them. These are extremely rare taillight.

What!!!! What's happened you just picked that car up! That's sad to hear man. Hopefully I can get you to take some pics for me sometime.

I'm assuming you won't need headlights done anymore lol.

Believe me....I know. It's painful. But it is what it is.

And I'll actually need headlights done still....just different headlights. I'll keep you posted through text when next week when I seal the deal.

Yes. It was bound to happen. I just never thought it'd be right now. I had already given up hope and focused my attention on the TL. Then it popped out of no where. It was an opportunity I couldnt pass up on.

This is off their website

Registration for the 30 available Boost For Boobies dyno spots will be help in an auction style format the day of the event with hopes of raising the most money possible for this great cause. The day will be split in half with auctions occurring at 9:45am for the 15 early dyno spots and 12:45pm for the 15 late dyno spots. Bidding will start at $50 and increase in $5 increments should there be multiple people interested in the same time slot.

Plan to show up late? That’s exactly why we split to day in half, if you miss the 9:45am auction you will have another shot at securing a dyno spot at 12:45pm! Don’t want to wait around all day hoping to get on the dyno? This will work to your benefit, immediately following the auction all of the winners will be guaranteed their time slot, all you have to do is be the highest bidder!
