Found some corvette sawblade wheels and it's gona cost $290 to ship them other to the uk. Is that a lot? or about right? There 9kg each.
Not sure if I should do it :undecided:

+import duty & VAT

I thought about it for some chevvy berretta wheels, but would have been far too expensive!
Import duty is the killer i think mate, you'll be paying that nearly again...
:cry: :cry:
But if you find out any more, ill be interested, as i would actually part with some of my money for those wheels, just too tight and cant decide wat to go for.. :laugh:
-
Funnily enough, im looking into starting importing parts!
Mainly U.S spec Dub parts and the like but also some cosmetics for retail over here!
If i can get it up and running i'm sure i can help you guys out with bits and bobs!
I'll let you know if i start within the next two months :afro:

Import duty will hurt, might be worth hanging on and seeing if you can get a set in the uk.
-
that would be awesome!
