A-Spec body Kit backordered?

I have had my 2006 TL now for almost 6 weeks now and am still waiting for my A-Spec body kit to come in. I ordered it with the car and the dealer said it would be in in about a week. Now they are saying its been back ordered. Is this true?

Thanks

I haven't heard of anything like that. Can they purchase it from another dealer?

Sounds like your dealer is full of it. You would probably be better of going with Tim anyways. His prices can't be beat.

I picked up my RBP 6spd Navi TL last Friday with the full A-spec body kit. My dealer ordered it Monday of that week, and had it by Wednesday for installation.

BTW - First time poster but this board was very helpful in my decision to purchase my TL. Thanks!

key words ...you order it with the car and its been 6weeks...tell them you want to cancel...how much did they charge you?
You can get the full body kit for <$800 from a bunch of dealers painted and shipped. and your dealer will install it for abt $200 im guessing...

As for the kit, you would have come out better buying it online and not from the dealer.
