Hi all

 

Just enquired about a set of cross-drilled Stillen front discs and metal matrix pads direct from Stillen in the USA.......

 

Discs V.cheap at US$135 a pair and the pads come in at US$59. Great prices, I thought, ..........until they got back to me re the freight cost US$210 FFS !!!! :eek:

 

I tried pricing the same product from UltimateZ, although discs are $240-ish a pair they only charge $54 to ship them here (and the pads are $10 cheaper)

 

A saving of over $60 in all.....

 

I thought feck-it, as I'm going to have to pay duty etc I may as well get them from Mike Feeney as there's not much in it in the end and if there are any probs, it will be easier to deal with Mike than someone in the USA.

 

However, if I wanted the 99 spec rear lights, it would only add another $300 to UltimateZ's price..... :) Hmmmmmmm

Richard,

 

Try Mike Feeney at MJP (he's in the traders section). He does Stillen parts and his prices arent bad.

already ahead of you mate ;)

 

With Stillen's carriage charge, plus vat + import duty Mike's price works out similar......I know who I'd rather do business with (thanks for the spoiler, mike - it arrived today) :bow:

 

Richard :)

Can't find the bit of paper I wrote it down on :o , but IIRC Mike charges £175 + vat for the cross-drilled front discs and £55 + vat for the metal pads ;)

 

Richard :D

Yeah £55.+vat+postage.

Fitted Mikes metallic pads at the wkend , they seem pretty good so far.
