A-Spec body kit dealership quote

I called my local acura dealership today and they said the whole body kit for my car would be $827.65. i was wondering if i could that that cheaper here or should i just go for it and buy it there. My car is an 08 PMM Base model.

Thanks

last night you added yourself to the group buy for $715 shipped. not sure why you are looking anywhere else, that's the cheapest you can get it for. unless you want to pay the extra money.

just gotta wait 1-3 weeks until they hit their target number which usually doesn't take long

this thread is stupid. If you can get it for $715 shipped, why would you get a quote for $8xx.00 and ask if someone can beat it...

I'm glad the forum is turning out to be like the 3rd gen TL Facebook group. Most questions asked at this point is exactly like beating a dead horse over and over and over and I'm sure the horse has a name already.

Rolo, welcome to AcuraZine.


Get whatever you can from anyone. Chances are you'll need to get the Aspec Kit repainted anyway. I'm not sure, but I don't think that PMM is available anymore.

thats why i left the facebook group....it's ridiculous how many ppl ask the same questions over and over. I get so tired of answering ppl's questions and some ppl are just such noobs and want to be spoon fed everything...At least here on azine there are mods to limit this.

"Hey will 18x10 fit my car?"

"I accidentally put 87 octane gas in my car is it gonna be okay?"

"Which brand transmission fluid is better?"

"Anyone have a DIY on installing coils?"

theres like a new one every 30 minutes...

If the dealer has the discontinued color you need for $827 then I would jump on it. I needed a CBP Type S kit and I dragged my feet until they were discontinued. Luckily I found one in the BM and paid around $850 for it. The seller was local and brought it to my door, plus no need to get it painted!

My local Acura dealer posted on Kijiji an brand new base A-Spec lip kit for $500, NBP.
They also posted a brand new right side headlight for $200.

Supposedly dealers are trying to get rid of stock from old models.

Maybe you'll get lucky and your dealer will do the same.

That'd be cheaper then grabbing it from AZ since I can get it painted for $350

It was a couple weeks ago. The dealer is Acura Barrie.
Give them a call

I was tempted to buy it just to have and resell in the future.

Here's link for the lip kit:

Here's link for the headlight:

Someone must have just bought the rear lip itself.

What I never understood is why would anyone sell the lip kit off their own car??? Taking it off would leave holes in the bumpers and what owner or potentially buyer would want that??? Made me always think kits on the BM or Craigslist were stolen or something. Just my two cents. Sorry I don't want stolen parts on my car. ( Believe it to be bad karma)
