I highly suggest that if you live in Canada that you buy your products elsewhere, the whole international shipping thing is apparently too risky.

Correction... avoid USPS at all costs. Anytime I've dealt with them it has gone to hell in a handbasket. FedEx and UPS have been fine.

My catback was up there yes. $495 with shipping but the things I added to the retrofits plus shipping came to $510.

I got slim ballast and halos.

Yeah it's a good price, I had to do it haha. If I get a dashdaq, it'll be the most expensive until I buy a clutch then that'll top all.

That is the opposite of my experience. Everytime I have used UPS they have raped me on the brokerage fees. I get everything from the US shipped to me by USPS if possible. Not the fastest or the cheapest but never had a problem on the 30 or 40 things I have had shipped up here. I had a brake controller that cost $115.00 US delivered by UPS. they charged me around $65.00 when the delivered for the brokerage fees and another $40 something a month and a half later for duties and taxes.

I made a vow to never get anything from them again.
