^ wow thats pretty cheap for Acura to quote that. Did you get it?

Me and my Acura dealer went on this site and they said that i couldnt get them since mine is a TL-S. The Tl-P and the TL-s had different part numbers for it.

If i was able to get it for the whole kit painted my color would be 955 not to bad.

well the type-s and tl-p are different cars as far as engine goes so maybe thats what throws the numbers off like that..but i dunno...when i called Joe at acura of Bellvue he jus asked the year and color of my car BAM..he said its ordered and that was that...

i actually called them from an earlier post you made... they had all the pieces "in assorted colors"

but he quoted me 450 for the rear lip.. plus 125 to ship it to me

575 just isnt justifying a 3 inch wide rear lip =(

front and sides will work till i find a rear thats reasonable in price... i paid less that that for BOTH front and sides...

IN NY they wanted almost 500 for my frontlip, 400 for the sides and 400 for the rear, but i ordered my front and side lips from Florida, I went with the Wingswest Rear ordered that from CALI. Check this out, when it first arrived It came in a box 36 inches in width, I was like WTF? no way thats my rear lip, when i opened it, it was rolled up lol, you just gotta love that Rubber shit.......had to stretch it out for a few a days then everything was great, just imagine the shipper was smart saved money on the shipping SIZE!!!

im not sure what you're getting at.

what i meant was find a dealer with a better price... and that wont have to ship, or at least ship closer..

i know that acura is acura... but i've gotten 3 different prices for front, sides, and rears from 3 different dealerships...

not saying i will only pay dirt cheap prices... but 575? nobody should pay that for a rear lip...

my local quoted 411 and i thought that was pretty steap for something thats been in a warehouse for years collecting dust..

deals happen.. and luck for some people..

if i cant find one decently priced in 6 months or so i'll cave and just pay for it. anything is better than fiberglass.
