well the l88 project is off.

spoke to Unlimited today,they want $380 shipping.

I got a full exhaust over to uk for less.

cant see how they justify that cost.

So what if you inquire about a whole L88 hood instead? Maybe it would be more feasible to just buy the whole hood and pay a bit more in shipping. Less hours in bodywork.
Call or contact places like Mid America, Bair's, Ecklers, ACI...hell call or contact them all. Maybe it might work out better.

I checked all of them,sarge.

It seems the manufactures(stinger fibreglass) do the shipping,and they are way over the top.

any way got one off summit racing.scoop, a few other bits. $423 including shipping and taxes paid.

that shipping was about $180.go figure.

Joanne, Sorry to hear that your project is off. If you still need pics I can take some on sunday. My camera is with my daughter on her trip to France but should be back tomorrow. Shipping has stopped me from buying things as well.
Joel, You know you cant put a GM part on a DODGE! LOL

what we have to pay here is:

cost + shipping

vat=20% +6% import duty.then fedex,usps and others hit you with a handling free about $20

al this adds up fast,sometimes more then the org. order.

don't mind fedex as they get stuff here with in a week,sometimes 4 days.
