Side note, all of my delayed orders have decided to all arrive within two days. Caliper paint took the longest which is odd since they're Canadian based.
Did it come by Canada Post? They have been sitting on deliveries for weeks.

5 different companies. Amazon, Canada Post, UPS, FedEx and Canpar.

I meant the paint in particular. My wife had a package she was tracking that sat in the Canada Post distribution center a few blocks from home for almost 3 weeks. She called after it sat there a week and their answer was "It will get sent out eventually but we don't know when". Took two more weeks.

The paint was sent via UPS. Seemed like partial distributor issue + a delay in pickup on their end.

Canada post seems all over the place. My girlfriends order from China is going on 2 months. Canada post delivery. I ordered on Amazon and Canada post delivered before the expected delivery date.

Edit makes sense that China stiff is delayed.

You should not be ordering stiffs from China. Support the domestic market!

She wanted to try this product called paint by Numbers. I told her to find something local and it probably wouldn't take 2 months to arrive.

Got trunk lid back from bodyshop after painting, swap/spoiler delete complete. Totally brain farted and didn't realize license plate grommets are 1 time use only and cannot be transferred from old lid (no mention of it in repair manual, I ordered all the other one time use parts). Parts have arrived at local airport so trd kit should be put on sometime this weekend. Won't be able to drive till those grommets come in either which may be a a week or 2 .

RICE yellows went on + SPC camber bolts.

I will never do that again in a tiny garage.
