My dealer said the same thing to me. I asked him if it would delay my order to get one without the guards and he said yes. I really didn't mind the guards, so I said ok, I'll take a car with them but since *I* didn't order them I'm not going to pay for them. He said he could do that, and we were both happy.
I'm glad I got them now, probably would have ordered them aftermarket anyway but I think they actually enhance the look of the car - they make it look a little wider and a little lower.
