Slimg60 0 Posted November 6, 2010 Are there any decent suppliers in the US for Corrado parts. I'm on the look out for some new brakes, and as I'm off the US in January, I'm wondering if it would be cheaper to pick some up whilst I'm out there? Does anyone know of any suppliers across the pond? Cheers Slim Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Neokitz 0 Posted November 6, 2010 they are pretty heavy items to be lugging across the pond. Will probably put you over your luggage allowence. Also they is the import duty they will ask you to pay if you declare them so all in all it could work out the same or be an expensive experiment..I'd just stick to parts that can be sourced in the UK...plenty of them.

junkie 0 Posted November 6, 2010 Suppose it all depends on can you get them delivered to where your posted or do you have to collect from a store somewhere. If you can get them delivered to you then just google on .com I guess instead of .co.uk and get finding some that interest you. Look on vortex as it's American and see what those guys are using etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can get a Ksport procomp kit at reasonable price but other than that, itis the Brembo kit, that works out cheaper to buy from jabbasport. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted November 7, 2010 Worth posting on VW Vortex in the Corrado section mate? They might be able to recommend some companies stateside that we've not heard of / dealt with.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
