I put the car in the body shop on the 6th of March, and as far as they are telling me they dont have the part yet.
That being said is it that scarce that they are unable to get one yet?
Can anyone suggest an after market that would match the rest of my car because at this point I want the vehicle back already.
Unable to get one? Sounds like they are trying to find a wreck yard or used part for cheap.... It's an OEM part...should be able to get one in a matter of days.

Sounds like you need to jack up your adjustor AND talk to his supervisor. The insurance company is trying to cheap out and not spring for a new one. Tell them you want a NEW one, not some refurbished POS. Elevate the problem until someone says 'okay'.

While they may be trying to cheap out, the rental car I have is costing them a fortune, so far $1100.so I really dont suspect that is the issue.

Louie, even though this may be true, don't trust the Insurance co. Like others have said, "it shouldn't have taken this long to get these OEM Parts". I would have the body shop call you once they get the parts, so you could see if they are new or not!!
