Received a package yesterday from Cris over at iRunOEM (Express Acura Parts). Usually I get all my OEM parts through my works dealership account due to cost. He has been very competitive price wise and able to locate parts my local dealer has told me are discontinued. Here’s the most recent order
Started with the upper steering column. It’s so nice seeing brand new plastic installed in the car that I had to rush and order the lower column cover. You don’t realize how trashed they are until you see your old next to new.
Good excuse to remove the tails and detail behind them
What’s in the box?
Once again, brand new plastic! Replaced this on my EM1 as well and let me tell you. It’s probably one of the best low key parts you can buy. Makes such a difference when installed.
Dang! Mind sharing which parts they told you were discontinued?

RF bumper turn signal lens. He has (had) them in stock. He is in the community so understands which parts are in need and stocks up on them for a future date it seems. Great prices too, no HYPE gouging.

Does the Irunoem guy have an email contact? I'm looking for an ITR crankshaft (which is discontinued). I don't use IG.
Part number: 13310-P73-J01

Paint isn’t a really PERFECT match, but it’ll do for now. I just wanna drive!
Will install the bumper lenses and plugs tomorrow and it should be back on the car.

You are making quick progress. Looking good. I would be more concerned with the match on the fenders and the hood than the lip. I also wanted to the climate control bezel. I did the same thing on my em1 and as you stated it was well worth it. I am concerned buying one because I don't want any damage done the cable. My brother's customer has a gsr and the cable is slightly stretched, and that cable is discontinued. I am pretty sure it's the same part number.

I think have seen your wtb ads on ht. I also need one and didn't want to cock block but I think we probably both need a used long block to get a good crank. When I bought my rdot block the crank was the same price as the assembled block new . This was before the crank was discontinued.

I remember looking about a year ago when the crank wasn't discontinued yet. I think it was around $900 new from Honda iirc. But yea man, if you have any leads or ideas lmk. It'd be better if we can get parts like this sooner than later.
I texted the irunoem guy.
