Probablly for a premium...most of them actually order from Japanparts then put their profit on top to make it worth while

Don't mind the premium just want less headache as I've never ordered direct from Japan parts myself but will order direct if not available from uk. I've asked import car parts and they said they can't supply it!! although they sell the rest of the s203/4 dash kit and the red hazard switch but not the fear surround and it's not a part of the kit neither

Same as ordering from anywhere else out of the U.K. really, order it...pay for it then await the customs letter stating what you owe them...pay that and arrange a delivery date.

RCM and others who I won't name wanted nearly double the cost from Japanparts for some oil cooler pipes I needed a few years back, just cut out the middleman imo...but with delivery,vat,duties etc you'll be around the £230 mark

Japan parts really isn't a ballache once you familiarise yourself with the site & ordering ... Just sit back / forget about it & it will arrive

Your right pal I just thought some dealer might have had it here allready by chance and I might get lucky

Thanks pal I've been on the site loads of times, I guess it's time to register and get some rare jdm parts ordered thanks for the advice I am alittle inpatient but as you say sit back and it'll arrive

Would have been nice if someone had the part here in the uk though

Not looking for seats bro but.. £2k is not a lot of money if I found some for sale I've spent more on rs4 wingbacks in the past and last year bought full r32 leather trim for the golf that wasn't cheap, besides my **** wouldn't fit in them recaro's so I got the spec c rear bench to compliment my interior instead
This gear surround will complete my interior just the way I want it bro init

I believe they do Zany, what's the retail on them , tbh I'd rather have those than the Porsche or other set ups for the exclusivity & that nice little touch / I may have to invest

They do look sexy as **** but it'll be an overkill in the brakes for me as I hardly use the power brembo ones do the job
