Question A-Spec Body kit vs. Factory Aero Kit

For those of you with the A-Spec package installed or those of you that may know, is there a difference in the body/aero kit between the added factory package and the A-spec? People's A-spec body kits that I've seen on the photo forums seem to have the same lines and shape as the factory optional pieces offered by Acura. I'm just looking for a way to avoid some of the A-spec charges by getting the car with some of the parts already on it. I may make the plunge for the suspension, wheels and tires, and steering wheel later.

Thanks in advance for all of the info

The kit looks the same...its just that the a-spec stuff is considered a package, so they give it a fancy name in throw in some more stuff in addition to the factory body kit

QWIKTL:

I bought it from my dealer after I bought the car. I did this because the dealer did not want to flex on the price. Sunnyside Acura has a site online that sells all the accessories at a 25% discount. I printed sunnyside's pricelist and took it back to the parts dept. of my local dealer, the parts dealer gave me the same prices as those listed on my print out from Sunnyside's web page. Plus the tax ofcourse since I was buying local. I am so glad that I bought them locally because the color is way off and so the dealership is now having to correct the problem by painting the add-on's as they have re-ordered them twice and the color is still off.

Best of luck...

Currently this is not an option for the suspension or the steering wheel. Only available as a set. Wheels are available seperately, however. Maybe 6 months from now we will be able buy suspension parts be themselves, but not yet.
