You can't attend a meet 10 mins from your house because it's not "simple" enough for you?

But you'll drive 45 mins to Arlington to check out a car that's not for you?

You fukin douchebag

To the OP:
You might not want this kid touching it. Everything he touches, breaks

Have you run a carfax on it? There are several missing VIN # on the on the front bumper, and fenders, which means those were replaced, probably because of a wreck.

Car is garbage. Paint work on rear bumper, paintwork on front bumper, fenders I'm sure there's more once you get to it in person.

The front bumper is an aftermarket knockoff also.

Shady dealer auction tag says it all. Typical car flipper. Buys a totaled (but "clean title") car and puts it back together.

i mean i see that the vin tag is gone on the front bumper but the place for it is there so i would think it would atleast be OEM, i cant even see the spot on the fender where the tags are or mismatch in the paint

Ill fitting near corner of the headlights.. Genuine Honda replacement bumper has a label on the tab that is closest to the reservoir. It cannot be removed easily. If it's painted over - it's still visible because it has a double indented sticker.
