....have you e-mailed sites like RHDJapan or Nengun? Even with our shitty exchange rate $2400 is a lot. Unless that includes shipping then it's super cheap.

I know RHDJapan for sure are willing to do custom orders if you got the cheese.

Hmm that's weird, they're not willing to special order it for you? My friend got some rare ass front lip for his Impreza from RHD and they special ordered it for him.

Fuck RHDjapan. Their mark-up is ridiculous. For anything besides body kits I'd suggest having a middle man get directly in touch with the company, ie: Streeter.

The company/site you posted is located in DENMARK. So I don't think they would go near U.S. stuff.

BN isn't cheap period. And neither is getting stuff from Japan. And then you need a BN hookup (I haven't ever looked into getting BN so I can't really help you there) So add those together is why nobody has real BN.

TF/Enjuku capitalized on all the Rocket Bunny hype, wonder if they'd ever do the same for BN.. probably not.

Their markup is ridiculous because they have the means to drop shit to your doorstep and get shit through customs. Plenty of middle men are willing to get you things you want, but they're not going to send a container across the ocean for 5 percent of a containers space much less most people wont send aero. You could also see if speed alliance in san diego would be willing to obtain BN aero since they're the main importer of all vertex aero in the US.

i hope they do!! but again they havent replied in more than a week
Bn is not cheap at all i agree.. but if people spend 3k on wheels why not on a decent kit? tsuneyoshi takuwa lives in Japan and had originally offered to help me ship this but then never got back to me? lol this shits too annoying ... even when you got the money its still a bitch and a half for a kit

I wouldn't deal with them again personally. I ordered a pair of over-fenders from them awhile ago because I knew they could get what I wanted and it was easy. Their shipping is still insane - DHL/FedEx. Cool for easiness and convenience, not much else.

I wasn't saying the middle man would have any involvement with the container process though. They will get it to the yard and that's it.

+1 On Speed Alliance though, legit business. I was referred to them by Vertex, like you said they are sister companies from what I understand.

RHDjapan you get what you pay for, they have excellent service and they can source parts really easily and alot of companies are on board with them selling their products, their mark up is expensive, a greddy turbo outlet gasket is $2 direct from greddy...rhdjapan sells it for $15, but I wont have to be chasing Greddy USA around making sure it gets to me. shipping is going to be expensive because their business is to get parts to you as soon as possible. All their rates are for 3-5 day shipping to your door step. I love RHDjapan I've met the men that run it at SEMA -great guys and I will always give them my business.
