Front Splitter for Camaro SS
Hey,
Does anyone know where I can purchase a front splitter for 2016 Camaro SS for around $300ish CAD(including tax/shipping). There are many sites online that are selling them, however they are all in US dollars. The conversion rates plus shipping increases the total price to $400+. I really like the Street Scene Front Splitter. https://www.stillen.com/street-scene...950-70239.html |

You can use ' LETHAL 5 ' for 5% off at phastek which sells all the splitters....shipping is another issue though....cost me almost $50 for tints and a catch can and I'm just accross the border.
Also for larger items consider shipping to" US address " or another such place in new york and picking it up. |

orrr.. set an address up with a cross border courier service. I use one in Mississauga - everything gets shipped to N.Falls and they clear it, bring it, all legit with duties taxes etc. Their fees are really very cheap.

Cross border pick ups. That's the one I use. Cheap and easy.
I have done tires and some small items like a blackout kit. Free shipping to niagara falls and Cost $7 to pick it up in Mississauga (blackout kit) As for a $300 splitter...not gonna happen with a 35% exchange rate.

Ya if your closer to the GTA would be the way too go. Either way exchange is gonna add $100 give or take... we definitely get screwed from that angle at the moment. Let us know if you find a better solution!

Will let you know soon how much they charge and how it looks. Its insane for me to drop an extra $150+ for the exchange rates/shipping for a $250 product. |

So I found this website online autoanything.com and it was selling the Street Scene splitter for USD$249.00. It included a 20% off promotion and FREE shipping, so the total came up to USD $199.00. In Canadian dollars the total comes up to $278! So I did what M.A.K, Homer2 and BradfordCamaro told me to do; to sign up for an US address using cross border pickups! Since this is a large item, my fee will cost me $15. I am pretty sure CBP will ask me to pay the taxes for the splitter so the total will come up to CAD$314 plus their fees which is $15.. for a grand total of CAD$330! Now I am waiting for them to ship it to my US address. Hopefully it arrives soon. Thank you MAK, Homer and Bradford for the idea of setting up an US address! |

Hope it all works out.
They are pretty fast. Usually get the arrival notice the same day they get it in Niagara falls. Then could be 2-3 days until it gets to Mississauga. Let us know how it goes.

Looks good.
I've not seen pics of that one online, or installed on a car. Please post a pic once it's been installed.

How did it work out. How much did you get charged for cross border and did you get dinged at the border?
