dont feel bad andy, acura screwed me today too, except it was hinsaws in fife. Just take the kit back & tell them to get the right one, & the one you received is unacceptable....bastards. Its like acura doesn't care about thier customers anymore?

i ordered a kit from Acura of Bellevue two weeks ago, i called the day after i made my order to make sure it was in and ready to ship. they told me they would have to charge me $150 to paint it because they didnt have any Black left and 100$ to cover shipping, bringing the total over 650, i said no and canceled my order.

i ordered my '03 kit from Tim at Ray Laks Acura about 5 weeks ago and just got it in on thursday. it took a while to get here but the kit is in perfect condition. '03 kits are normally $829 but Tim was able to paint them (because there's no more SSM) for me and get them shipped for the same price. the kit came in perfect condition.

Shady. I emailed them ahead of time and they quoted me $659 to get a kit shipped and painted in my color. Ridiculous. Other people who ordered were having theirs paint matched for free and shipped for the $400+ price.
Save yourself the trouble and stay away from them. In another post people were mentioning this guy: accessoryman@charter.net.
According to Dark DJ: "yeah i got my kit from there. his name is J. Dewey Kinchen, a real nice chap! i got mine for under $400, painted and shipped."

I just dropped him a line and hopefully he hits me back soon.... How much has he charged for you guys? Models and prices.... Where is the best place to get springs and sway bars???

Ray Laks Acura Honda is a dealer in Buffalo, NY. Tim is the internet parts manager and deals with most of the stuff when you call 1888RAYLAKS (toll free), i already called no big deal in hook ups though. he'l tell you it was $400, but now its plus freight, and if they dont have the color it's plus paint, plus shipping. Although one thing is free, it's "you getting raped up the @ss"!
