How come our forum vendors don't stock the ZR1 carbon rear spoiler. The waits are at least a month for everybody. I could see the painted versions need to have a longer ship time. 9 model years and it fits all of them.
Damn I feel better now.

Maybe try a non-forum vendor?

Plenty of good deals out there if you look.

My Dad always told me that "You can't sell from empty shelves".....unfortunately many companies do not follow that advice.
I own a medium sized company and my inventory is always at a 90day + supply. Yes it costs me a little in cash flow, but more than makes up for it in "need it now" sales.

Internet ordering + drop ship = no need or desire by many online vendors to have any stock on hand whatsoever.
