just ordered 4 of these for $17 shipped via FedEx 2 Day shipping
ordered from http://www.hondapartsunlimited.com/i...=45218-TX4-A00
Also, about ordering from that site, the part number only works as a Acura Part number, if you try to put it in as a Honda part, no parts are found.
Hopefully i'll have them by the end of the week.

I will have to wait and see if oemacuraparts does this.
What was the amount of the increase they told you to pay?

Looks great. Way better that those stupid fake brembo caliper covers because:
A) They're an OEM part
B) They're not pieces of plastic molded into the shape of a Brembo caliper.

Damn im sorry you guys are going through all this trouble. My dealership confirmed it as well, it's on back order and prices are going to be higher. It's in high demand... Please post up pictures when you guys get them!

Mine just came in and I was surprised to see that these covers are not made of plastic at all. I was under the impression that they were and they are actually made of metal/aluminum. The install was pretty easy, took no more than an hour following the instructions of the OP on where to apply the black silicone.

Kyle, I know they're difficult to see behind the Type S wheels. That's why I painted mine a different color other than black.

When I talked to Tim a day or two about these, he said go ahead and place the order, but don't expect to get them any time soon. Apparently Honda anticipated a need of about 14 of these per year, and now he alone has around 80 orders to fill.

the link no longer works.
It was very stand up of Tim to continue to allow these to be purchased at original price, AFTER Honda raised it. He has always taken care of members on this site since becoming a vendor, but I'm sure many of these orders were placed by people who didn't even mention Azine,( I know I didn't, but I got in before the price increase) and he continued to allow sales at the original price.
Thank You Tim Outstanding customer service.

Just ordered mine. Hopefully it will come soon.
After glued, will there any problem in removing the caliper later for changing the rotor etc?
It would be terrific if someone can post a DIY with more pictures.

It's really not-you can mask them off (leave them on the car). Get some high intensity caliper paint like G2 and you're set.
