Re: Carmate Front Bar
I can get you a facelift with rheo, fogs and indicators landed for under $400 to your door. Will be either black or white from japan.ObsidianRadio wrote:I'll need to have my mind made up and a bumper landed in 4 weeks unless I want to wait until after christmas to fix my fast deteriorating car up
My bottom lip fell off the front bar other day, sh*t's everywhere![]()
And what's wrong with HKS? Not too dramatic, won't cost me $1000 to do... I have a budget of $450 for the front bumper

Re: Carmate Front Bar
Make sure you have the freight sorted Stuart, ive tried that before and really got burned because the bar is longer than EMS will accept. But then maybe you have a channel I dont.....

Re: Carmate Front Bar
Import monster via container comes to $310 + whatever domestic freight works out to be. E-go would be <$50. It's over the other side of the city though so id take some petrol money if you were keen.

Re: Carmate Front Bar
Ok, thats interesting. For bigger things import monster looks the goods then. The people ive been using would have charged me $400 just for freight if id have bought across a full bar. Thats why the bar I bought to make the original TS Factory got cut in half before it gt sent and plastic welded back together when it got here.

Re: Carmate Front Bar
For everything else, yes. But bumpers are too big as dstocks said. Container is the best way.silverGPX wrote:Jessestreeter

Re: Carmate Front Bar
I don't want a stock bumper though. They're not low enough and they're boring hahaha. The HKS looks sensible and is lower than the factory bumpers.
If I could pick anything I'd take a Bozz or a DC, but obviously there are none available in Australia at the moment...

Could I have one in four weeks?

FTO is going off the road this weekend due to front bumper actually falling off...
