UK stuff for the P11 and P10Dprotech 05-24-2001, 09:57 AM Here are some of the discusssions I have had with NeedforSpeed in the UK. Read if you are interested in getting eyebrows or splitters. http://www.needforspeed.co.uk Hello, The light brows etc. are sold in pairs. I gave you the dates of the changes on the Primera, as they are in the UK, but as we have only sold the Morette head light kits for the G20, and they fit perfect, we can only assume there is no difference in the styling of the G20 compared to the Primera. What we have found from experience, is that the face lifts on the models in the UK some times vary from the car in other countries. The Peugeot is an example of this, the models are the same, but were introduced into Greece about 2 years ahead of the UK. I have mentioned this so when parts are requested, the car can be checked against the picture on the site displaying the part. We would be grateful of any information we can recieve about the G20, ie, styling changes etc. In the UK, the Primera, and the LX 1.6 model differ in so much as the bulbs in the head lights are different. The LX has a single main beam and dipped beam in the same bulb, the Primera has 1.8 and 2.0 litre have two seperate bulbs, one for main beam, and another for dipped beam, these are situated in the same light unit. Please feel free to display any of our parts for the Primera on your site. Stan NFS. Pricing: The front corner splitters we can provide for the Primera will be universal Part No. CSW275, all the parts except the rear corner splitters which ( non listed) you mentioned are available in black, (needs painting) or carbon effect. I will list all the parts less vat for you to view. Corner splitters CSW275 black, 39.42ukp CSW9275 carbon, 48.67ukp Font centre splitter LCS100 black, 38.25ukp LCS9100 carbon 44.21ukp Light brows LB2271 black 29.92ukp LB92271 carbon, 35.92ukp Carriage for one set of each to Canada, 29.75ukp This price does not include any import tax you may be liable for. --a buddy of mine is bringing the stuff over in July, so I save on the exorbitant shipping cost. Until then ...more chicken wire for me. :silly2: Nismoboy1 05-24-2001, 12:19 PM I checked the prices in USD here's what I got... Corner splitters CSW275 black, 39.42ukp ~ 55 USD CSW9275 carbon, 48.67ukp ~ 69 USD Font centre splitter LCS100 black, 38.25ukp ~ 54 USD LCS9100 carbon 44.21ukp ~ 62 USD Light brows LB2271 black 29.92ukp ~ 42 USD LB92271 carbon, 35.92ukp ~ 50 USD these prices sound pretty low, especially for some carbon fiber corner splitters...only $69 (USD) is it fake carbon fiber or is it real? and to ship it to canada is only $42(USD), is this right or did I do some wrong conversions :confused: b-b00gie 05-24-2001, 12:49 PM i had inquired with them a few months ago about the eyebrows... they were about $40USD plus shipping... BUT.... they wont mail it directly to you.. it goes through a freight company.. which means.. before they get it, it goes through customs.. you'll have to pay tax on the cost in US dollars.. import fees, and a customs charge (all at customs' discretion) then the kicker.. the frieght company will charge you to ship it from their warehouse to you... the eyelids will quickly become over $100 cost :( b-b00gie 05-24-2001, 12:53 PM here's exactly what they told me about the shipping... Hello Brian, We use a courier company called ICC, ( international courier company,) who delivers our parcels all over the world, and have never lost one. Problem with regular mail is they tend to lose posts, especially international and we lose the cost. One thing of note with ICC is they have to pass through customs, and there will be duty (taxes) to pay and customs charges. You may also have freight cost from ICC to you. You would be responsible for all the charges. Stan i_rebel 05-24-2001, 01:03 PM I suppose the most cost-effective way for us to get these parts is to have them ordered and shipped in a bundle . . . then once the arrive, who wants 'em, gets 'em . . . "group deal"? Dprotech 05-24-2001, 01:25 PM Or if you have buddies in UK ...like i do who come over regularly ..hehe thats what I'm doing ... eyelids anyone ? lol ...I really should order two pairs though. Oh yeah ..and the $42 shipping ...well thats per item. Nismoboy1 05-24-2001, 04:27 PM I guess those currency conversions are right...but is all this carbon fiber stuff they have, real or fake? either way, i'd probably still get some corner splitters sooner or later :flash: dre 05-24-2001, 05:08 PM stupid question alert!! what are splitters? know any sites with pictures. the NFS site has a pic, but the pic is smaller than a postage stamp. Dprotech 05-24-2001, 05:28 PM These are splitters ..corners and front Dprotech 05-24-2001, 05:29 PM all of em b-b00gie 05-24-2001, 05:43 PM Originally posted by Dprotech Or if you have buddies in UK ...like i do who come over regularly ..hehe thats what I'm doing ... eyelids anyone ? lol ...I really should order two pairs though. yeah... actually had my uncle who lives in portugal order them (eyelids) for me from need for speed... he also had gotten me a Primera badge and i'm waiting to see if he can get me the GT one too... anyway, i think the package may have finally gotten here today (what a coincidence) but FedEx left me a failed delivery attempt note on my front door... so i'll find out tomorrow for sure if thats what it was.. :) i ordered 3 sets cause the ones i had made werent the greatest cause they were custom, and i had cracked one anyway... so i wanted new ones. one set for me, one for a friend, and one for another person who i'm not positive if they're interested... if not i may sell the last set in the forum... not sure on the price yet since i havent figured what the total cost was to get them... primera man 05-25-2001, 08:45 AM b-bOOgie....let me know about the eye lids as you know i have been tracking them down for a loooooong time and the price you may want. I'll see what the exchange rate is,see if it's worth it and what we can do as it may be easier to get them off you. I'm about to give up on this bloke here in NZ making them for me as they are crap. Here's had 3 goes now and i'm still not getting what i ask for :mad: :mad: :mad: Cheers b-b00gie 05-25-2001, 09:14 AM hehe.. no problem... if i dont have that one set available, then i'll let you know about it... when i talk to my uncle again, maybe i can have him get me some more, but i'd need anyone who was interested in them to send me the money before i can order them.... i'll see... primera man 05-25-2001, 09:24 AM O.K Nismoboy1 05-25-2001, 09:42 AM Here's a ok pic of some corner splitters...the red lip-like piece under the car...(oh no not a civic lol) :D primera_gte 05-25-2001, 11:16 AM needforspeed will negotiate the price with you on a group order. i tried to do early this year for the p10 morettes but my car was stolen before the deal was finalized. when i get back home i'll post some of the emails from needforspeed. customs- expect to pay 15%. b-b00gie 05-25-2001, 03:34 PM it really depends on the situtation.. i ordered a $175 front spoiler once from germany and customs charged me $125.. so thats more like 80% i got charged tax and flat fees for not having an import license... customs will waive those charges sometimes and only charge you tax.. you have to get lucky i guess... its all at their discretion Dprotech 06-08-2001, 10:47 AM well here they are ...sitting in my uk bud's apartment. He's bringing them over July 3 b-b00gie 06-08-2001, 11:58 AM hey!!! those are the wrong eyelids.. i know cause i just got 3 orders of them two weeks ago!!! RGM mis-packaged them at the factory (before they were sent to NFS) those eyelids are for the P11 144 series even though the label on the packaging says "Primera 9.96 to 9.99" :( :( :( :( :( :( Dprotech 06-12-2001, 11:40 PM Alright ..i'm getting some where with need for speed. They are looking at the matter and Stan is checking out the fitments. He has indicated that he can see the problem but will be making sure tomorrow on a p11 model similar to ours. So its just a matter of time. Boogie I'll let you know what the outcome is ...lucky for me the eyelids are still in the UK and my buddy will simply return it there. Kinda makes me wanna make friends with someone from Japan b-b00gie 06-12-2001, 11:52 PM kewl lemme know what happens.. Dprotech 06-13-2001, 01:01 PM This is confirmation of the wrong eyebrows Hello Dom, Thank you for the pictures of the G20, the light brow picture you sent me is part No.LB2272, this is for the Primera 1999 on. The Primera was changed three times, up to 96, 96- 99, and 99on. Hope this helps. Stan NFS. b-b00gie 06-13-2001, 01:18 PM so are they gonna do anything about it??? lol Dprotech 06-13-2001, 01:20 PM part number is LB2271 which is what I ordered, but 2272 was what I got. 2271 is for the primera 96-99 which is our car b-b00gie 06-13-2001, 01:21 PM whoops.. i was changing my post while you replied... so are they sending you the right ones??? Dprotech 06-14-2001, 08:38 AM Hi ya I just talked to Need For Speed, and they said that the manufacturers packaged the brows up incorrectly, so we got the LB2272 brows and not the LB2271 brows. He said I should return it to him, and he will sort out the correct ones. Also he said you were after 2 pairs of the LB2271 ? Is that correct? Shall I order 1 more? >>this is a message from my friend in the UK. I'm going to order 3 pairs unfortunately that is all he is willing to bring over at this time and even more unfortunate ..they are spoken for already. I will make a mold of it or take a pair to an ABS Plastic shop and see if they can duplicate it ...is that copyright infringement? primera man 06-14-2001, 08:53 AM Looks like you have beaten me to it. I sent them a email about 12 hours ago to try and order some but have not heard back yet. Looks like i know the answer already !!! As for the copy-right....i wont say a word if you send some my way :D :D I have tryed everywhere and they are so hard to find. I'm waiting to hear back from some one here who thinks he can get some.....just more waiting :( :( zykotik 06-14-2001, 09:05 AM Hey if anyone makes a copy I'm up to buy some. Gotta encourage this kind of activity or we'll all be stuck buying internationally all the time. vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
