ARS Bodykit delivery

Postby DTGriff » Mon Mar 18, 2013 1:13 pm

Hi Guys,

I'm liasing with ARS at the moment for an Evo X replica front bar and their prices are awesome.

1 thing concerns me...

For delivery, apparently they have to send it to Port Melbourne (ocean freight) and I have to appoint an agent to deal with costs and handling etc.

I've never done anything like this before, can anyone point me in the right direction for this?

Thanks!

Yeah I asked the guy the same thing. If you get any answers, let me know. Maybe I can combine my purchase with you.

Well this is the part I don't get.

ARS can organise to get it here, via ocean feight which is what the $95 is. But apparently I need to appoint an agent to sort out me picking it up and the taxes and handling costs. :S

Yeah that's why I went to Rainbow Pen. I sent them an email saying that we get things from places like America everyday and that they should organise their deliveries so that they can be sent somewhere. I'm just curious to know how much this agent cost.

I would urge caution here.

In the earlier days of this club, we brought ARS on board as a sponsor because they were cheap. Nothing against them because we need to have people catered to every pocket. Just like how some people would by Mitsus while others buy Mercs.

Quality though leaves alot to be desired.

I'm sure you've done your due diligence.
I hope you realise by now that you get what you pay for in this game.
Just don't complain if it doesn't match up to your expectations.
Make sure your complaint will be according to the amount you've paid.

Yea I'm always cautious when it comes to non OEM stuff.

I'm asking for photos of fitment first before I buy anything.

I'm willing to pay more for a decent job. Although I'm thinking about just getting the RA front bar now instead.

Didn't know it was a direct bolt on, but thanks to Irving's comment on FB I now know it is :)
