    I used CBI when I was building the 3V and it worked very well. Used Cross Border Pickups for one small package not too long ago and I must admit I am hooked on the convenience of local pickup.

    I now want to get a front spoiler for the 18 (yes i now I was going to keep it slow on the mods but I am an out of control addict!) My problem with Cross Border Pickups is I can't figure out what the cost of them receiving the package would be. Don't seem to be able to maneuver around their website in an intelligent fashion. I do know that the US shipping quote to Canada for the spoiler and HST was $192 USD. CBP has got to be cheaper than that?


    Built not bought! Follow this link to my 08 GT/CS Air Lift Performance Suspension Install Thread or this link to my Garage Thread

    My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my car and parts for what I told her they cost!

    When I ordered my brake swap off eBay shipping would’ve been $400-450usd. I used CBP and paid $150cad if I remember correctly. I’m sure if you called them they would give you a rough estimate.

    Got a new front prop shaft for my Polaris Rzr S through CBP...very painless and delivered to my door. Saved about $175.

    Free to register and you get a ZIP code and PMB #.
    It’s located 5mins over the boarder in Niagara Falls NY.

    I also ran into that issue where a U.S company wouldn’t deal with shipping to Canada.
    Another vote for CBI but it has moved so it's a little farther now and located by the Outlet Mall. I order items to be delivered there and couple it with other shopping, lunch or dinner.

    I guess it depends on where you are located - it's about an hour from my office in Etobicoke to CBI, and I stop to replenish my craft beer stocks in NOTL/St Cath on the way back...plus you pay a lot of tax with CBP.

    I always thought tax was paid based on value?
