Body Side Moldings on Back Order
Part of my new car deal included, at my request, body side moldings for my silver 2016 RX. Today the dealer emailed that they are on backorder. I'm fine with that really...I had them installed on my wife's 2015 car about 2 months after we got it. Just wondering if anyone else has tried to order them etc.

Yeah but is that an OEM or after market part?

My Massachusetts dealer installed the body side molding on my autumn shimmer RX prior to delivery last week. I think that our salesman was surprised that he could get them and the mudguards as he indicated earlier in the week that they would be on a "We Owe" list.

I tried 3 different dealers in Phoenix for Eminent White body side moldings, including one showing them on ebay, and all 3 said they are being held for port installs with no ETA for purchase.

Can you please post some pics of how they look from multiple angles? I'd really apprecaite as I'm thinking to order them for my Rx too. Thanks

Sorry for the delay. I saw your query on Friday and wanted to have my car washed before I took pictures for you. I have a few more pictures. Let me know if you want to see them.
Regards.
Regards.

Any Body Side Molding Update as of Apr 7th?
I haven't heard from my dealer about the body side moldings that I paid for when I bought my RX about 6 weeks ago. Before I contact them about the backorder (I wasn't told about the backorder until a day after I drove the car home, but to be fair it wouldn't have stopped my purchase), I'd like to know if anyone has any updated info from elsewhere on this. My car is silver if that matters.

UPDATE: my dealer now has the moldings and I'll post a photo after they are installed, soon.
