fitcy 10 Posted September 29, 2012 (edited) I'll take the last G60 shield:thumbleft: pm me details & ill send payment. Nice one mate, thats everything reserved VR6 Shield/Liner Jon_vr6 x 2 Shield/Liner & red Emblem CazzaVR x 1 Shield/Liner subcool x 1 Shield/Liner Byrd x 1 Shield/Liner BILLCOR x 1 Shield/Liner & silver Emblem VAG-hag x 1 Shield/Liner Dude VR6 x 1 Shield/Liner Jim Bowen x 1 Shield/Liner & silver Emblem Tigerfish x 1 Shield/Liner Portent x 1 Shield/Liner & silver Emblem G60 Shield/Liner GazG60 x 1 Shield/Liner Topaz2008 x 1 Shield/Liner & red Emblem Rorgasm x 1 Shield/Liner ---------- Post added at 12:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:32 AM ---------- As the material is only 1/4" thick, I'd be interested to hear how it compares to the OE foam's sound absorbency. I can't see anything being as good as the OE foam Kevin, it's just a pity the OE foam disintegrates the way it does. I stupidly hit mine with water from the hose, the damage was done in a split second. Edited September 29, 2012 by fitcy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fitcy 10 Posted October 8, 2012 Any news buddy No news yet mate. If you check, it has passed the British customs, so they must be with the parcel company, the parcel company pay the tax/duty. I purchased items from America before, first i recieved the tax/duty bill from the parcel company (ie Parcelforce), i paid over the phone and the items were here the following day.

fitcy 10 Posted October 9, 2012 Good News: The Import Parcel Invoice came this morning. Even Better News: For some reason the bill was a lot less than I expected. As you can see below total VAT bill is £28.71 Added to the £409.08 is £437.79 Which works out at £29 per shield/liner (cheap or what? lol) I've paid the bill, so the parcel should be here tomorrow. Tomorrow I will package one shield, go to the post office and see what they charge for delivery, then i'd be able to let you guys know the total cost.

Goldie 2 Posted October 9, 2012 If there is another GB I'm in... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fitcy 10 Posted October 10, 2012 The shields came today. I was late getting home today, so i didn't have time to parcel up a set and go to the Post Office for a postage price, i will do that tomorrow. The supplier sent extra waste pieces (see photo), incase any of you guys (including myself) mess up the installation. He also sent 2 extra silver emblems. So if anyone wants one, just say and i'll include it with your shield. The foam material just looks like any other sponge material. To see if the material was fireproof i held a lighter to a corner of a waste piece for 10 seconds, the foam didn't ignite. After 4 seconds it started smolder (smelled a little like fireworks), it just kept smoldering. So, it is definately fireproof. I have no way of knowing how much it would dampen sound, but it's foam after all so it has to lower the sound somewhat. Sorry to the members who missed out on these, maybe someone else will do a GB.

fitcy 10 Posted October 11, 2012 Rather than rolling the sets up for posting, last night I sandwiched a set between cardboard, keeping them flat. Took the package to the post office today. First class recorded delivery throughout the UK is £3.65. That works out at £33 packaged and delivered, Jon, your 2 sets work out at £62 delivered. PayPal charge a percentage for selling items, although its free if you send money as a gift, if you send money as a gift I will need your postage details. When i get home i will PM each member a PayPal email address, and get them posted to you ASAP Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
