I checked using my Vin with several dealerships and all the parts counters said the same thing, 7 business days showing avail, why the part is not here is the real question. Oh well the glass packs on my accord are awesome

Dude try hiring someone to come and perform an exorcism on your car! And sue the *** off that repo guy, they must have no idea how much damage they've caused you both materially and personally.
Good luck!

LOL,
Only took one month to get the part from GERMANY, hell I could have seriously drove there picked it up and been back in the same amount of time.
They used a new shipping service. The service is called Pelican express shipping. There are no gurantees, but in this economic collapse it is dominating international shipping markets as it is free.
Just transport your part to an area with pelicans and attach said part to the sea birds leg. Eventually the bird will wind up on the Atlantic coast and you can retrieve the part and give it to the new bird that transports via going around South America and ventures over to the Pacific. After 30 or so days your part should be available for pick up at the Pelican express Pacific Oceanic hub .
Funny Fed X and UPS figured they would dominate, nah Pelicans rule

Absolutely.
I looked at some dates for Fontana, lots of NHRA stuff going on this month.
There is a public test and tune June 27th but that likely will be craaaaaaaaaaaaazy busy.
Now that the car is back I need to get that ever elusive 11 sec pass.
Seems the AMG strut is a rare item indeed.
I will definately attempt to get a solid track dat for the Mercedes folks, hopefully sooner rather than waiting till DEC
