Rep Power: 197 Canada sucks
Hey everyone. I've been searching far and wide for a company in Canada that offers a service similar to that of HandaAccessories.com. Unfortunately, I have come up with no results. The only option for me at this point is to order the rear and side OEM skirts from the dealer for a ridiculous amount of about $1,400 after taxes. And that's without the front! There is no f*cking way that I will pay that much for those pieces. HandaAccessories.com seem to have fair prices, but they do not do orders from Canada. So, I was wondering if anyone knows of any other solutions or companies that might be able to get me what I'm looking for.

Re: Canada sucks
Yeah the dealers really rape you on the prices, in you US you could probably land a full lip kit used for half the price.

Anyway, I've decided to order the rear skirt pre-painted because I still have a $200 credit due to an alignment they f*cked up the last time I was there. And I'll just go with some Type A sides in welfare abs plumbing plastic. Sucks, but they're less than $200.

Gearbox, that's insane...especially because it's in US dollars. I'm assuming it would be a bit more here if I order the full kit. I bought the front lip used from someone for $140 and decided that I now want the rest of the kit. And I'll be going pretty low this summer, so polyurethane is the way to go.

Re: Canada sucks
This reminds me of the time when the Canadian dollar was worth more than the US and Canadians were hoping the border and buying all kinds of ****, the iPhone was the big one. It got so bad that apparently they started checking drivers licenses to make sure you were a resident of Buffalo before they would sell you one.
