This arrived today. [emoji3]
I will email you all either tonight or tomorrow night. I might be too excited about my car today to think of anything else!

Congratulations upon the delivery of your new baby; the car that is. Hope to see some pictures in the near future. Having driven around Canberra I know there are some lovely roads to go for a long drive on the weekend. Enjoy

Bump. How are these working out now they are fitted guys?
Hope you have not all gone quiet for a reason?

daMama is a very busy lady. We are still in the process of organising delivery from East to West.

I just tonight got quoted freight £75 for one (£45) unit from the UK. But I import export for my business and will check out FedEx costs on our account. The thing that you may be finding out is that once you get them in and then disperse to different AU locations, the freight cost savings are still there, but eroded by Aust post costs and your own time in organising the whole thing.

If you hadn't withdrawn from the group buy your freight cost would have only been $28.46. As for my time, given deMama very kindly did all the organising for us all I have to do is get a quote from courier such as TOLL to see if they can beat the Aust Post price and I get to split the cost with another buyer in WA so it is win win.

I have said it privately but big kudos and thank you to deMama for organising this group buy.

Try e-go.com.au. ive used them for plently of things from small 2kg boxes to whole desktop computer systems interstate. Found their prices very good.

Thanks very much, haven't heard of them but will certainly get a quote from them.

Cheers!

Big thanks to deMama as well for organising this group buy I just received the the stainless steel one and it looks great. Will post up a close up photo if anyone likes once I've stuck it onto the bumper. Can also see how it looks via this link: http://www.rearguards.co.uk/index.ph...ya5b94t4l0560p

Went to stick on the the stainless steel rearguard today and made a mess of it... Didn't quite line it up properly - the lip part on one side was sticking out from the bumper by a couple of mm. I was luckily able to get it off the bumper at least without any damage to the paintwork, but in the process it bent the rearguard too much which then buckled the edges

So I'll be putting in another order shortly (and being ultra careful 2nd time around in the application..). If anyone is yet to buy and wants to share postage, especially if you're based in Melbourne, please let me know.
