i got a price for you. They do come painted and the rrp is $855 AUD. I can probably get it for you for around $700 but i doubt youll want it at that price.

I'm guessing that $700 doesn't include shipping to the US correct? And from what I got from some guy who works at Honda Japan they no longer have blue ITR front lips and stopped making them. Where would you get this lip from? Is it in stock at a local dealer?

Let me know, if you have it over there at your local dealer and can get a okay price with shipping and such, I might buy it!

Thanks for the help!

that does not include shipping, im not sure if they would ship it to you...if not i could organize freight for you at your cost.

If they say they can get it, theyll get it! If they cant...well you wont pay!

And this price is what you got from a Honda dealer? Because 855 Australian is a lot of money for a front lip, a front lip from Honda (here), painted is usually probably around the neighborhood of 500 Australian.

If I paypal you money, would you be able to buy it and ship it to me? And did they say how long it would take to get or if they had one in stock in Australia even? Because supposedly Japan has none and doesn't plan on making anymore. Remember, this is in Arctic Blue Pearl.

And again, thanks for your help!

yeap, honda parts are expensive here plus the aussie dollar is sucking so parts are still quite exxy. Shipping will be in the vicinity of $150-200 at least.

i still dont understand why you dont just spray your black lip blue at a reputable body shop...

Yeah no kidding! I don't see how they're so much more expensive over there but I guess everything must have a reason.

So you think it would be like $700 + $200 for shipping so $900 total shipped? I rather not paint the brand new black one blue because good body shops are $$$$ here and supposedly it's the last black ITR front lip that's new in box so I rather not ruin something that's perfect and discontinued. If it was CW, I'd consider it since CW wasn't offered here in the states.

Do you think you can find out the price you'd pay for the front lip? I do have a brand new ITR front lip in box, I can give you the measurements and such and maybe you can use that to get a shipping quote if it's not too hard. Here we can use any of our shippers websites and it'll just request dimensions, weight and destination and it'll let us know the cost of shipping.

let me know the dimensions of the box and the postage. Honda will get back to me tomorrow about availability and final price.

The box is too big for EMS so i cant send it via Australia Post (USPS equivalent).

Pack and send is $500 +3% of the items value for insured door to door courier.

at current exchange rates on paypal that is about $850 usd

So $850 USD total for the lip shipped to the US? And did the dealer say how long it would take to get the lip?

Just got off the phone to honda. They can get it, but i will call them if you are 100% sure you want to do this before i order it. If it is in stock in australia itll be available for pickup on thursday and i can get the courier company to get it directly from Honda. It should then be in your hands within a week pending customs etc etc etc etc etc.

I can get it for $600 AUD + $515 postage = $1115AUD = ~$800 USD.

EDIT - just called honda. One in stock, last one in Australia. =] It is 13:07 Monday. I need to know by 15:00 Wednesday if you want it this week.
