That's a great price, the 130 I quoted was to get a bumper to the states, I've never had anyone in Europe want one as they got the V6 and S2 bumpers over there.
Edit-- Just tried them and they won't take an S2 front bumper too the states as it's too large once packed up in a satisfactorily manner, I doctored the figures down a bit I got a quote of 400 quid. To Norway with the correct figures they quoted 145, how did you get them to do it for half that?Last edited by K Simmonds; 24 November 2011, 11:15.1990 B3 2.0 80 quattro.

The bumpers I got from audibits were just wrapped well in bubble wrap and some sort of tough, black, plastic; not much added size.
A guy on Motorgeek was recently looking to split shipping from Audibits, perhaps an option.Comment

Mr Benson. Do you still have the piece of the RH side rear quarter and wheel arch you cut from the good shell?
My RH rear arch is bubbling

Packaging isnt the problem, I pride myself on packing things properly as some have probably experienced already
The packaging you mention is exactly how I pack my things, loads of bubble wrap and black plastic pallet wrap. The problem I'm having is finding a courier willing to take a bumper overseas, im having a nightmare! Seems odd that there is only one man who can get them to the US 
Sorry mate but the gearbox is spoken for, one of the first bits to get snapped up.
I sure do mate, Its sat in the garage still. I know Error404 expressed an interest in the outer wheel arch housing from it, my concern is that you can't just change the wheel arch housing without the quarter panel, it's quite obvious why when you see the panel itself, I will need to have chat with Alex and see whats what before flogging the panel on, I would have thought the wheel arch inners would be better patch repaired and hidden under the liners than replacing them, anywho I will let you know

That's how I pack bumpers as well, cocoon them in bubble wrap and plastic, still ends up slight too long for most couriers to take to the US.Packaging isnt the problem, I pride myself on packing things properly as some have probably experienced already The packaging you mention is exactly how I pack my things, loads of bubble wrap and black plastic pallet wrap.

I'm sure there are plenty of businesses that have the same discount arrangement as Mike, however I don't expect there's many prepared to send stuff for private individuals.
Hope you get something sorted.1990 B3 2.0 80 quattro.
