If only it wasn't so costly to get them here!

Dan and I have been chatting, it seems that depending on value declared these would be between 60 & 85 USD to post one here....that's just postage
not sure if there would be additional costs / duty / taxes.

I am also currently making enquiries about a potential supply of new Roush spoiler(s) I'm waiting for the company to get back to me.

The sad part about that price is, I wasnt asking for any money for myself. Being so common here to me theyre worthless. Me and removing them is about like you guys putting them on. I much prefer my wing in the pic. That silver one is the one you saw on my car yesterday. There also isnt much weight to them so that wasn't the deciding factor either. I think it was mainly from the size of the box.

If Bat comes through for you then we need to post that site. All the stuff in the Contour catalog fits the cougar. For those that dont know the Contour is the US mondeo. Alot of useful stuff there, though their catalog is getting smaller.

Did you say where in the US you live/moving to?
My Aunt and Uncle (ex USAF) came over for my Grandmother's funeral last week, they'd already booked to come later in the year too. Don't know how many spoilers you can get in hand baggage and claim are "gifts for the family" though:LOL:
 
Im moving to around Atlanta. Which is kind of what got me looking through parts at whats good and what can be scrapped. Im not going to have a lot of room to store spares for awhile.

Just to add some perspective, and this is not to take anything away from Dan's generous offer, but remember you can still get new spoilers for around £100....

Oh yeah absolutely. If you can find cheaper that you like then by all means. Get it. Im not going to be too upset if they never go back on a car.
As we discovered anything from me to you guys is probably going to have to be an I just have to have that one type situation, just to make up for the crazy shipping. I think if we combine them all into 1 package it would better justify the cost. If Im not going to the scrappers and paying money for it, the part isnt a big loss to me. I unfortunately cant spare the ammount needed to get these there.
I just saw a need, and in the back of my mind I kind of seeing a good portion of things Ive ended up keeping being scrapped. Its a shame, but its just the way the car parts crumble. To me spare parts laying around is good in case I ever break something, and if I had the time Id probably end up trying to sell locally. I would just rather find a way to get them to you guys because I KNOW that whatever comes over would be highly appreciated, put to really good use, and not sure if youve noticed but Im more about making the cars different from every other one like it in the area the car is.
I hate seeing someone put serious amounts of work into a car and then it turns out looking really similar to 10 more just up the road a touch. Of the dozen or so cars in the UK Ive looked at for myself recently I think only 2 of them had these things. So I know whatever it goes on is going to be just a touch different then most of them around.

Dan, could you let me have the dimensions and weight of the package required to ship the three spoilers to the UK and I will make enquiries about arranging shipping from this end.
If you are happy to package them and be home for a collection that is?
I would need your zip code to obtain a shipping quote. (y)

I still have to weigh them. Im guessing 5-10lbs each. Not heavy. The dimensions for each one. The box has to be 44x12x4 inches. Im looking around to find a box I can fit all 4 in. A store here called Uline has 44x12x12 boxes which I think I can manage to squeeze them in with padding so the dont break, but 12 which is going to end up costing like 40 bucks. Im not happy with that number. That and bubble wrap would end up adding another 50-60 bucks. I'll check later today for a more precise weight and cheaper packaging thats still just as good. My zip is 28376 if you can find a cheaper shipper we should be in business, if you got the rest of the logistics taken care of.

To be honest, there has been 1 spoiler I have been trying endless to get hold of which is:

Look at this on eBay http://www.ebay.com/itm/231966904455

I have tried everything to get the seller to ship to me but they wont, Id pay silly money to get hold of one :(
Thats the exact spoiler that Steve has a line on. And youre welcome if they work out and ship to the UK. [emoji1] Theres a company here that has them listed in their catalog for like 40 USD. Had I known they were such a big deal I would have bought a few when I had the money lol.

BTW, I do believe thats what Roush used.
