shipping from USA to Canada...
all the parts I want need to come out of the USA or I will be paying more than double, does anyone know if I orderd these parts will they get stopped at customs or will they come to my house and will I have to pay extra on them as to make it not worth it? or should I just take a 20hr drive to the states and pick up the parts? any comments or opinions will help.

RE: shipping from USA to Canada...
I get most of my stuff from the US and I always try to avoid UPS. They charge $40 brokerage fee and then another 5% GST on top of that and that's on top of the other taxes, duties and shipping charges. I had this one item shipped by UPS not too long ago and I paid $19.00 for shipping, $5 GST and $41 UPS brokerage fee. The post is way better as they only charge $5 brokerage.

Why does Canada kick you in the ***** for ordering parts from the US? Embargo or tarriffs on American goods or some ****?? You guys gotta pay like 50% more to mod your car; that's gotta suck[:'(]
