So I'd suggest don't skip on the shipping $$$ and try to have them sandwiched in between two sheets of foamcore or thin plywood as CC-B does. Make sure you inspect them before accepting them because even if the box looks fine, if they flexed in shipment they could be cracked. Once they are on the car they are strong and mine look good after two years, no fading or cracking. They are easy to install and I did not use the etching paint as subaru suggests, just de-waxed the area.
thanks for the tip

i got a quote from japan parts for 6 visors
Here is the estimation for Subaru parts.

*069-019-007 SUBARU SIDE VISOR For Sedan[4]; 12,900JPY x4=51,600JPY
*069-019-007 SUBARU SIDE VISOR For Wadon[2]; 12,900JPY x2=25,800JPY
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sub Total: 77,400JPY
Shipping to U.S.A Via DHL: 17,500JPY
It will take us about 10-15 days for preparation and delivering the item
after we receive your payment.
(Estimated days are until it arrives to U.S.A
and domestic delivery would take some more days)
Mail Order Card Sale (5%) for Credit Card Company: 5,000JPY
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Total: 99,900JPY
Customs duty is not included in this grand total.
We can not know how much it is.

99,900 jpy = 931.735 = 155.29 shipped per person

There was never a group buy, somebody threw the idea out for it. Nobody took charge, so it's everybody for them shelf.
