As states above, please call the dealer and hit 3 for parts and make sure they send the right color. It was a mix up because ASM is silver and you had an 04-05 so they thought it was SSM and you put ASM (alabaster silver metallic by accident)...Anthracite Metallic is just AM..

Sorry for the mixup, with no PM rights, it just hard contact you...they should give rights to all members (old and new) for vendors...

Okay I apoligize because that is slightly my fault. I thought ASM meant Anthracite Metallic. But AM is the correct abbreviation. So, therefore, I would need AM for Anthracite Metallic.
How do I get in touch with the dealer, Ack?

That's their website, the phone numbers at the bottom, just call them and explain what happened and they should sort it out.

Got my invoice.. how long do we have until we have to pay? maybe 2 weeks possibly? I told JL-TL I'd be moving by next week so I'd like to wait until I move into my new place before shipping.

I believe the invoice expires after a week.

Well I received my invoice on Tuesday , paid for it right away , and fed ex tracking says I will receive it by this Monday . So maybe what you could do is pay for it on Friday but before you pay make sure you change your Paypal shipping address to your new address and have it shipped there.

Okay, thanks for the guidance after the mixup Ack and JL. I'm all paid. Now I'm looking into comfortable coilovers. Thinking Megans or TEIN Street Basis; any advice?

Aren't the TEIN Street Advance coilovers like $900 as opposed of the $650 TEIN Street Basis? I'm not racing lol. I just wanna be able to cruise and take on the bumps of New England more comfortably. Where'd you purchase yours for only $500?

I didn't mean to buy the street advance-the basis still work well. I'm not racing either. I found some on local Craigslist. Basically brand new. But I would personally recommend teins..everyone has their own personal preference though.

I found used Megan Racing Streets for $675, but they were for his WRX. I'm assuming they wouldn't fit on a TL?

I doubt it. Check the part number and see if it's compadible.

Hey man do you have the A-Spec side skirts in Moroccan Red Pearl for a 07 Type S?

I wish I would have found this thread a couple weeks ago. I ended up ordering the Front and Rear from AcuraOEMparts in NHBP and ended up taking them to a paint shop to get them in MRP. Spent way more than I wanted to.

I just went through all this on the last page. I have an MRP type s. There are no more MRP parts available for the type s kit (no side skirts either). I'm in the same boat and having an NBP kit painted MRP. It blows spending all that much more money. We are just victims of supply and demand as MRP is the rarest type s color besides CBP.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but

ASM TYPE-S isn't available anymore
redondo red pearl 04-06 only sides and front were available 6 months ago so IDK whats left
CBP sides I think are discontinued..

You can put a caption of a optional color desired as we are getting VERY low on kits..

For those of you that have a color that is no longer available, don't despair. If its any consolation, having the kit painted and blended with the rest of the car will help to make it look more fluid and natural. Unless your car is brand new (which no 3rd gen is, despite how low your mileage may be), attaching a pre-painted body kit will not be a perfect match. Colors change with time, UV exposure, mileage and exposure to other environmental elements. So when you attach a brand new pre-painted body kit to a car that is 4 years or older, you will be able to tell when you get up close. If you have your kit painted and blended, this will not happen. Ask anybody who paints cars. In the end, your lip kit will look more like OEM and less like an add on than those colors that are pre-painted to match.

Out of all the cars I've seen this is 100% true, unless your car is in the shade/garage and really depends on where you live/color..People that live where its hot out all the time, this happen more. Although it will match 99%. Sometimes I've seen perfect matches..

I agree with this 100% because I know for a fact that there is 14 variations of anthracite. I own three anthracite TL's (ones for sale) and they're all different colors and also had a bumper painted anthracite years ago for my first TL and it didn't match. Blending paint is the way to go...especially WDP..it turns yellow over time..

Not to scare anyone but it is OEM paint and such. I want to say 10% of the time customers complain because its not a "perfect match"..

So I got my kit Monday, decided to inspect it today. So I open er' up and to my surprise I received the 04-06 instead of the 07-08 type-s which I ordered. Invoice said type s and even the instructions were for a type s. Anyone else have a mix up?

If you can just call up the dealer and hit 3 for parts, anyone can help you. They will send you a new one which you ordered and send a pre-paid shipping label for that one back..
