another not fitting strut brace!!!

[Veetec]

Luckily I´ve found a member in here who´s selling aftermarket parts and who would send it to me! I just need to know his price for the strut bar and how I can pay (no creditcard here).

Exactly that´s my fear! I dunno if I can trust him and I don´t have got any family over there. Some AF members have already bought some stuff from him and he told me that he´s a website vendor of variuos online clubs and that he´s in progress of having a shop in Riverside, California. He seems to be okay but who knows for sure!?
Has anybody of you ordered anything from an US aftermarket shop yet and could tell me which would be the best way to pay for both of us? And how is `Paypal´ working?
A fast response would be nice! Thanx in advance!

Finally got my strutbrace installed... after doing very very difficult, the store ordered a shorter brace for me... so I installed it today
I checked it with rallying around... although that was difficult... roads were very crouded (@civic16i16v: almost 'shot' by a police car standing near the road to bornebroek... grrr)
the car seems to go somewhat easier through corners... but I haven't fully tested it yet... (what becomes that strutbrace hot after driving! almost burnt my hands )
now bussy considering an accord type R '99 ... looks real nice... but I don't know what I'll do... still a lot of money ... €21450 .. although not too much for a type R i think...with cd changer... 'route plan thing'... airco ... armrest... alarm... HID headlight ( is this xenon???? )

He AccordCE8, good for you you got a strutbrace that fits.......finally

And you have fallen in love with that Type R at our local Honda dealer



I must agree its a really nice looking car.
I could go for a car in Championship White with a "Type R" logo on the side and the grill

Beauty isn't it? .. the only problem is I like my current car also very much.... it's only the power I miss.
But the type-r is nice 2... and I've to clean it often...white... you can see every @#$#-bug that splashes on the car.... well, I'm going monday to the dealer I think.... ask what price they can make it for... and then I've to put my finances together and so on...Sidney has his 106 gti! Maybe you'll see him tonight at the mac

Have a look at www.mobile.de !! There should be some black and red ATRs.
The guy from the states would send me the Neuspeed front upper strut brace for $190 including shipping. Do you think that´s too expensive? The normal price for the strut brace is about $130 so it would be $60 for shipping. I dunno how much shipping costs normally for a "long" object like that so please give me your opinion.

That's way too much man, I got mine shipped for $100 last year, ok I got a good deal but the shipping was only $20-30, there's no reason why it should be more, although the package is long it's extremely light. Who are you dealing with?

Did you got the Neuspeed strut brace, too? Where have you ordered it?

[Kohhal]

Yep, I have the neuspeed. I got it from car-parts.com before they were taken over. I had a discount too but the shipping was only the price above. There's no reason why it should be more and I'd guess if you shop around you should find it cheaper, ordering from the US that is.

I've decided I dont do it, I've been to the honda dealer today... asked what they gave for my car... than it was too much I had to lay by (good english??)
I asked at avb sports what the neuspeed would cost for my car... i can't remember how much it was, but it was about $190 too. imo it's too expensive for 'just' a strutbrace.
Do you know how much shipping is for a car from the netherland to suriname? about €450 !! not much compared to that strutbrace. A bicycle will cost less than €25 shipping

Yea, I know. I´ve canceled my order today and sent an e-mail to www.digitalracer.com to ask them what their price would be and if they would send it here. $190 is really too expensive and then I would have to pay about $60 for the bank transfer again.
