A-Spec Lip Kits in Canada

Anyone know where to get a better deal on a oem lip kit for a 2005 Acura TL in Canada? I've been looking around and there's just too many sketchy sites for these aftermarket kits that no one should actually trust... I was hoping someone still knows of something like

https://acurazine.com/forums/third-g...-cheap-780256/

Even with the Canadian dollar going down the drain right now, it's still a better price that paying 1150USD plus shipping from
Acura Tl Body Kits at Andy's Auto Sport

If no ones got anything, I might just ask AckTL05 and maybe he could help...he seems like the go to person for all things Acura TL.

I looked around for several months in Canada and finally ended up ordering them from a US Acura and my garage went and picked them up (no customs).
You can also order them in US and drive there and get it installed.

Otherwise you'll pay a lot for shipping and customs, unless you go for non-OEM which i dont recommend.

Good luck!

I talked to both AckTL05 and my local Acura Dealership (Southview Acura) located in Edmonton. Believe this or not but they gave me a quote of ~$6600 and they're on backorder and won't be in till March 2016 ... AckTL05 definitely gave me a better price of 850USD, however to ship it into Alberta it would cost $300 dollars. Obviously I'm not going to the dealership for this one, so I might plan a road trip pretty soon for the kit.

That shipping sounds about right, just remember that bruce likes to prepay customs and duties for Canadians so that's part of it. Shipping to Calgary for catback + jpipe + HFPCs was around there for me too.

Also you should try West Side Acura. My TL is from West Side Acura and when I dealt with them they were pretty good.

I called Southview Acura, I actually find some stuff that goes on with marketing pretty funny. I got some O-rings for my power steering and I swear the Acura dealership gave me a higher price for them then Wheaton Honda, both are on 34th

Just wondering, is it extremely hard to install the kit? Or could I do it myself?
