I just purchased a soft & flexible polyurethane type r/ front and rear bumper kit off of ebay. ABS plastic on the front is crap and brittle. Even with shipping from Cali..it beat out alot of Canadian companies!!!!

For a 1.7 EL, your best bet is the dealer, or a junkyard. Honestly, good luck. I just bought mine with the full aero kit because I know how difficult it is to find.

i have the front lip already, which is actually getting painted right now. I need the side skirts and the rear bumper. Which leader did you go to?

leader or dealer? that's ok, we are all a little dyslexic every now and then.

I'm in Hamilton and the Acura dealer is literally 4k away from my house on main and longwood. But their parts guys are honestly a little slow in the head. I would call every junkyard in the book first. Sometimes you can do cash with the attendant over little plastic cosmetic things like skirts and lips. Hell I picked up a bumper cover once for 20 bucks.

hahaha dealers!!... man, I'm working on a specification's assignment and i must have got my train of thought crossed between these forums and my paper... I've been checking all local salvage yards in my area (keele and weston road) for years now... Acura Sherway and Acura Scarborough don't have anything either. Do you have the number do the dealer there?

The dealer won't stock it, you'll seriously have to go to the dealer, get them to pull the car up on their cpu. Then point at the parts on the screen and make chimp noises that they understand. That is how I have to get parts from them. It's rediculous I know, but that is how it is. Now, sometimes they give you bullsh!t answers that the parts is unavailable. You then have to call Acura Canada and taddle on them. The whole process is ridiculous and a ludicrous waste of time. On top of it the parts will cost you a small ransom.

Just calling the dealer is a waste of your time.
