Did you find a Giken front bumper? I am looking for one too. By the way, did you ever manage to sell your stock front bumper? Where are you located by the way? JC

Cool. I live in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. Are you interested in organizing a group buy (well, me and you anyway) on the Giken bumper? Perhaps we can get a break on the price/shipping.

Also, are you still selling your OEM bumper and was that $250 CDN$ or US$?

PS - I talked to Giken directly and they told me we have to order from Bozz Power. Just in case that doesn't work out I am also working on getting an STi Prodrive style front bumper sent over. I'm waiting for pricing as we speak... Interested? ... assuming the Giken thing doesn't work out for us.

How much did you end up paying in total including S&H and taxes and duty? Or dare I ask?

I hear ya bro. I almost got shafted from a guy in TO... wanted me to send him a money order for a front bumper and when I told him I had a guy coming to pick it up and give him cash he bailed... brutal stuff.

Anyway, did that $1600 include everything?

Perhaps we should contact Giken, tell them what is going on, get two bumpers sent and then let Giken get their money back from Bozz? Anyway, just throwing ideas around...

I'd really like to get one of those bumpers big time. Let me know what you think.

JC

PS - I used to live in North Bay... are you anywhere near there?

As another point of interest, what city is Giken located in? I have a relative living in Nagasaki that might be able to bring a bumper or two back with him on the plane... just a thought... JC

Hi Subaru_Hag, I got a response from Bozz and they tell me your bumper is on the way so we won't be able to ship together. But at least thats good news for you!!

They also mentioned that you are a lady... so I must apologize for calling you "bro" earlier. I should not have assumed... sorry about that.
