Have you tried calling Acura and asking the parts dept to match that price?

Tommy said the cheapest he can get me is around $950 or something like that... i think he wants to make some bucks.. but I will try to talk to him again so perhaps i don't have to pay for shipping and get the kit the same day. that would be awesome. Did you get a discounted price?

btw, get to sleep!!

damn i got a final tomorrow... shat...

Thumbs up

I paid $437(this price is including tax) for my wings west TYP-W kit. I went down to the WINGS WEST factory in person with a truck and picked up my kit with no shipping fee. I searched for the cheapest estimate to get it painted. It was surprising what I was told... ACURA's BODY SHOP told me 700 to paint the kit. I went to Cadillac's body shop and they told me 350. Hmm... I kept searching. I eventually found someone to paint it for 200. It was an excellent paint job( the guy had previous experience with polyurethane ). All in all, I paid a total of $637 for my WINGS WEST BODY KIT (PAINTED). It took one hour to install! So for all of you who plan on purchasing a body kit... OEM Kit is much less of a hastle but more expensive! If you invest some time and determination you can save up to 600 dollars. oH... BTW!!!! IS THE WINGS WEST KIT THE EXACT SAME THING AS THE OEM KIT? IF NOT WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE???(in style)

i don't like WW kit's sides... in my opinion they don't blend well with the body. So $200 bucks to paint the whole kit eh? that's pretty cheap.

UW TL that totally depends on where you live and where they are shipping it to, within the same state, usually takes 2-3 days, east coast to west coast, usually 6 days, and mid states to east or west coast is about 4-5 days...go figure.
