Need some help with an overseas buyer.

Postby Evo_Girl » Tue Feb 28, 2012 7:53 pm

Hi guys I have found a body kit that I really really like but problem is they are from Sri Lanka, they are called Accolade body kits. The problem is they only do Bank Transfers so I mean it's a lot of money and I will have no guarantee that I will get the product or my money back.

Has anyone ever dealt with them?

talk to Ofey, he may know them already as our chief buyer, and he should also be able to assist you in the proceedures and extra charges you will be up for - customs, shipping, Import, Docks charges etc....

There was a member on here that hasn't been active for a long time. Name was Blanka I think.

He got an accolade kit. It ended up expensive and a slow process. If you are not savvy with customs costs, and have a customs agent you can use I would be very wary about buying.

Azalea, if you opt to go for a fibreglass kit im more then happy to help with the fitting and modifications (that will be needed) to make it fit before you get it painted.

getting a shop to just paint it will save you a lot of money as modding and fitting a Fibreglass bar is one of the dreaded jobs and they charge out the waazoo for it
