Not sure if that means you just got off work, or if you were actually sick or injured somehow haha. Hopefully the first one.

It was still a good cruise. This was the hardest I've pushed my Lib thus far, and it seemed to stand up to the task pretty well. I did leave really wanting new suspension and brakes though I must admit.

Mike, we believe the next cruise will be towards the end of October. The plan is to go for a cruise to celebrate Kody getting his P plates. But he refuses to share when his test is, so we're not 100% on a date yet haha.

Which spoiler are you getting, mate? As I have received my tax return now and am about to get a spoiler too, although I need to make a final decision on which one to get. But if you want to hold off on ordering yours, we can split the shipping fee between us which will help a little bit.

Ideally I'm thinking Saturday the 28th, otherwise it will be the end of October as I'll be down in NSW for the first two weeks of October.
Still refusing to tell the date but everyone will know the second I'm off my L's XD

Can you send me a link for the exact K2 spoiler, and any other items you'd like, Mike? I'll get a quote for how much everything is with postage and then discuss options. I'm happy enough to pay for it via Paypal, so long as you're a solid purchase.

May as well open the offer to anyone else in/around Brisbane who would like to order something from Japan Parts. If anyone is looking for an excuse to buy yourself a gift, then here's that excuse.

I'm in for a front grill for the gen5.... however, shipping was quoted at only 50 bucks, so not sure it's worth the hassle for you guys to throw it in?

Muzz and Redbucket, if you guys send me a link to the exact part you guys want, I can work out exact postage, and split the bill so everyone pays for his proportion of shipping.

I just did a little maths using the K2 roof finisher for Muzz, and Corazon grill for Redbucket, as well as the Syms spoiler I want as an example. The exact shipping quotes may be a little different if you guys wanted different parts, though I don't really see why. You guys can check out my working and decide for yourselves if it's worth it. Odds are that I've screwed up the numbers, in which case please correct me.

Individually, I would pay $73 shipping, Muzz $74, RB $67. Grand total = $214
Of this $214, proportionally, I would be paying 34.34%, Muzz 34.35%, and RB 31.3%


When I order all 3 items together, the shipping is $186.78. This is $27.22 cheaper that the total of shipping each item individually.
If we break the $186.78 shipping down as I did above, I should pay $64.14, Muzz $64.16, and RB $58.48


As I said, the costs may change slightly if those aren't the exact parts that Muzz and RB want, or obviously if Muzz decides to get the eyelids too. But that's how I was planning to split the shipping costs.

Everything shipped comes with insurance, by the way. And I can just get it all shipped to my house and give you guys the parts at the upcoming meet, or we can do it some other way; I'm pretty cruisey.

Because you're over any kind of maths?

Or cause I'm a dumb ass and it's incorrect? :lol: I haven't been in school for a while now, and maths was never my strong suit.

Jesus, I'd put all that stuff out of my head. Can't believe it's been 13 years since year 12 for me!
