    I am inquiring with a company to bring in a few sets of these. Ideally, they will be around $100 a set plus local postage.

    They will come unpainted, maybe primed, but won't be colour coded to your car when delivered.

    Please let me know if you are interested so I can gauge how many sets to quote importing.

    I did ask Carshine in Melbourne about a year ago for these eye lids and were quoted around $60-70 for the pair (unpainted). Hope this helps. Give them a call.

    Ok, finally got back onto this one...

    to bring in 4 sets would cost around $140 each (unpainted) plus local postage...

    Not cheap, but they look nice.

    Bit of a joke really, the Local JE Design dist / importer took days to get back to me with something I could likely have lined up direct (if they had responded to my emails).

    Pretty expensive considering you have to get them painted...

    Agreed. Not competitive, but I don't speak Spanish, so cant check out the other Polo sites properly to see where they get theirs.

    If we could get them shipped to someone we know in the UK, then privately posted to us it would be substancially cheaper. The units only cost about $90, the rest is freight.

    Looks like GTI Dave found the eyelids at a much better price (well, cheaper freight as they come from the US).

    I'll bring in a set for myself plus 1, if you want one PM me. If I get a few PM's, I will consider bringing in a few.
