JDM Parts order from Heeltoe Automotive
FIRST AND FOREMOST, we would like to send out a huge THANK YOU to all of the SUPREMELY PATIENT AND UNDERSTANDING CUSTOMERS who have endured the long wait times and unreliable time frames that JDM OEM Honda parts have been taking to come in. We have hand a number of hurtles to overcome of later in terms of buying JDM parts.
The economic crash hit the USA hard but hit Japan even worse. Thinks were compounded with the relative strength of the Japanese yen to the Dollar basically causing all JDM suppliers in the USA to raise prices by 20% or more in recent months. Most if not all of our prices have remained the same until now but we cannot guarantee our prices for the future. The yen seems to have come back in line for the time being.
JDM PARTS ORDERS: We got a shipment in yesterday and parts will be shipping to backorder customers shortly! We will be posting up our JDM inventory shorty as we will have a few extra Accord EuroR grilles in stock for 04-05 and 06-08 TSXs!
We are only able to fill a few orders with this shipment, mostly some dipsticks, a body kit, a set of headlights, etc. We are also getting a restock of emblems. Any recent grille and emblem orders have been filled as best as possible through sourcing items from USA suppliers (at a much higher cost to us).
This week we have put in a stocking order with Japan (a different supplier this time, so as to not take as long as last time!) as well that will include a number of grilles, EuroR lip kits and such. We are trying to keep more stuff in stock now since it is getting nearly impossible to get these JDM parts in a timely manner.
Any painted parts we keep in stock will be NHB in color, since it is really too hard for us to know what color is going to be ordered and when. We can offer painting services at extra cost, or special order parts in your color with factory paint. Special orders are still going to take 2-4 months.
If anyone has any suggestions for us we are happy to hear them. You are welcome to criticize us that's fine too.

Let me help you!
Maybe split your inventory between NHB and whatever the gray color code is, since CGP is probably the most popular color out there? NHB is pretty rare in my area of LA county (I think about 95% of the TSX's I see here are CGP). For some people, it matches their CGP color anyway.

I see a lot of grey too. And we get asked for it a lot too. And black. And White too. And sometimes red. Silver is fairly often too.
Point is, if I could have them all I would. But I have to pick a color and stick with it. Black seems popular and unbiased.
