I suppose they would charge an arm for shipping, actually I sent them in email regarding the vr lip they are selling, i wanted to know the shipping but they never replied me !! disapointing

you can get a set of coilovers for $130, or my headlights coming from Germany costing US$40 for shipping. Still, even at US$118 shipped I spose its prett good....

hey sukebe,
coilovers for $130 did you mean the shipping/ the price of coilovers? what kinda headlights did you get for $118 US, got pic ?? I would love to have those mk4 style headlights.

Sorry, bit of confusion in my last post. I have had a shipping quote of US$130 for koni coilovers (the coilovers themselves were $800something). The aforementioned front grill on eBay is $118 delivered ($28 for the grill, $90 for shipping). My headlights were US$40 for shipping only.

ar... I see what you mean.. wow.. 800US for coilovers less than a grand US to door must have been a good deal. Do you mind telling the place you got them from ? I would consider getting coils after tax return.

haha $90 for shipping way rediculous, more like a DHL delivery huh.

I was just getting quotes, I haven't bought any coilovers. I thought the quote was $800something but a quick search shows that that price was probably for a strut/spring set. I had just been surfing various suspension sites (see the sticky thread in the MK3 forum for lots of good sites) for various setups. I am only checking prices for interests sake, and specifically to sus out how much shipping should cost as this is something we usually get raped on. I now know that, come time to get new suspension, I shouldn;t pay more than US$130-140 for shipping from the States.

Just search some sites dude, spend a bit of time looking, you will find a bargain somewhere.

Now, back onto the topic of this thread. I like the badgeless grill, paint job looks good, I think I might need one....

Yep, I found those Koni coilovers for $800USD too but the shipping was way up at $300USD! Even at $130USD for shipping, it would make the total to be >$1000AUD which means we would need to pay additional tax on top, which would shoot it through the roof anyhow However, someone on here found Weitec coilovers from the UK for less than $1000AUD shipped to the door! Forgot who it was though...
