The New "What did you do with your Z today" (with off topic replies) XVII

The tech was looking at it with me and says, "the clips are where they are, so that's how it's supposed to fit". Bullfuckin$hit. Look at the other headlight, dip$hit, or any of the other ILX models on the lot. So I convinced them to take another look at it, and sure enough ... they have to order another part because something broke under the bumper. I don't know whether it was completely broken when they did the headlight replacement or just partially broken and they finished it off today when they fixed the temp sensor. Anyway, I had to waste and extra hour of my time (while my lunch at home got cold), and I have to waste more time coming back to get it fixed again. This is exactly why I don't let dealers touch the Z.

Just typical. And honestly, the Honda dealer was more willing to cover $hit for us even over 100K miles than the Acura dealer with a car that is their lease. Also, the Acura is a magnet for idiots and vandals. I just want to drive it around during rush hour and hope that somebody hits me and totals it so I don't have to deal with fixing all the damage before I return it to the dealer
