Possible GB: Carbon Fiber Hoods - Page 5

pnosker · 10-02-2009, 05:58 PM

I got my documents DHL'ed overnight today to pick up the hoods. Anyone have any importing experience/experience with volume shipments from China/Customs experience? I will probably need some advice since this is the first time I've had something delivered directly to port rather than to my house.

Should arrive Oct 10, no idea when I will be able to pick them up due to customs and stuff. I have 3 not spoken for. Freight shipping might be expensive to CA, so it might make more sense to send 3 to CA and have the buyers meet up there to save money.

pnosker, are you counting me in on this or were there no more?

pnosker · 10-02-2009, 11:52 PM

I am only counting the people who paid me (one) and me. So nobody else besides me and Isis are included in my total.

pnosker · 10-03-2009, 02:42 AM

OEM type hoods

hmmm.... personally im a fan of seibon carbon with the cutouts.
Have to think on this. :-/

pcalahane · 10-03-2009, 02:51 AM

if im getting an OEM carbon hatch... i wonder if it would look better when combined than an after market version. anyone's $0.02?

pnosker · 10-03-2009, 04:01 AM

Seibon with cutouts let water into the engine compartment and allow the shock towers to rust. Anyway, let me know soon if you want one. Otherwise I'll stick them on eBay and make a good profit.

crap your right.... ahh!!! how much for it and shipping it to CA-94583?

pnosker · 10-03-2009, 04:59 AM

No idea... they come on the 10th and I might not be able to pick them up till after. When I get the details, figure out how to package them, and weigh them, I'll get back to you.

pcalahane · 10-03-2009, 05:03 AM

alright. If its better than what i normally could get, which im sure it will be... i'll be sending you some green. :-D

aw did i miss the gb?

tiFreak · 10-04-2009, 02:03 AM

nope, there's still 2 or 3 uncalled for I think

pnosker · 10-09-2009, 03:31 PM

Ok, so the hoods are somewhere in Long Island. Apparently, there's a warehouse fee... which I guess I should have anticipated. Anyway, the fee is $316 itself. Anyway, I have to raise the price to $480 per hood. Sorry guys. Still like $70 cheaper than elsewhere.

I am going to try to pick them up this upcoming week. Hopefully, if customs/everything else goes well, I'll have them at my house this week.
