        have tried already, they seem to have a backlog of orders and cannot say how long before they receive any.

          Hi Imster
          Yes, that's normal and that's the response I got from VAGParts back in Jan. I get the impression that these ARBS are not generally kept in stock and are re-made to order. Mine took only 2 weeks to arrive after placing the order with them, so don't worry!

          You say you've got a Whiteline about to arrive -did you order it through Demon Tweaks, or from Whiteline directly? I originally placed an order through DT and was told to expect a 3-6month shipping time! I ended up buying direct from Whiteline and couriering it, which took 7 days, but I paid through the nose for it in the end as I got stitched for import duties (£58)... Which one have you ordered?

            I ordered the adjustable one through DT - which they assure will arrive in 5 weeks...
            Did however speak to Whiteline initially in Oz and yes - would work out too much.
            Re: RS2 Arb Will try vagparts again soon to see if any change.

            incidentally DT did say that they the next delivery from Whiteline would be bulk - hence alot easier to order from on...better late than never
            cheers

                DT seem basically to order a batch and then they ship them over on a slow boat - shipping time can therefore take between 4-6 months. Whilteline only make these things to order too (that's what Whiteline told me), so if you order it from DT you have to wait for the boat to come in... I wasn't prepared to wait when I did mine as I had a small window in which to fit them, hence my expensive rush!

                    Yep, I ordered mine in June 2003 and got it four months later in October 2003, but I think that was one of the first that DT's sold, since then they seem to have realised there is a fairly good demand for them and sped the process up.........a bit, LOL.

                        DT said my whiteline would be 5 weeks - and it arrived 5 weeks later. (about 2 months ago).
