    HELP!... Decision required; to order or not to order my rear spoiler for the B9...

    Just got word from the Audi dealer here in Corsica France that they can indeed order the spoiler directly from Audi DE but there is a 20 day delivery time!

    If ordered today that would put the spoiler in their hands on Sunday July 10th but seeing they are closed on Sunday this would mean on the Monday July 11th.

    However I am scheduled to leave the island of Corsica on Friday July 15th giving me a maximum fudge factor of 4 days!

    So if you were in my shoes, would you take a chance and order it?

    What do you say?

    why not stay the weekend, stuff yourself with chapon, vin de corse and pietra, and local cheeses/charcuterie, tour the island on a motorcycle, and hope for the best? (sorry - thats what I do in Corsica and I love the island)

    why not have them ship it to your next destination so that you dont have to worry about it? Or it will give you an excuse to go back to corsica!

    Well let me see... I arrived here in Calvi on June 15th and leaving July 15th, that's 30 days on the island so I'll be doing lots of things while here.

    I have already asked them to see if they could ship it back home if it comes in too late but there was a huge pause and then they said it would be too expensive. I asked about shipping to a friend's place in the Paris area and they said that could be a possibility.

    Anyway I decided to order it and live with the consequences... Hoping it gets here in time!

    Why not wait and order it from Audi UK?
    Everything is cheaper there to Canada. Cheaper then even buying from the US (before Brexit). Pretty much if you can and need OEM parts get it from Audi UK
