I have used several vendors, just make sure you do a search on the vendor here in the forum and make sure they have positive reviews.

Personally I would prefer to buy the CF from a local supplier. Not that any of the guys on this forum are bad buy any means.

Reason is Quality. If you get a hood or body kit from the US and it gets damaged in transit it's a PITA to deal with the problem.

Worth at least 100 bucks to me to inspect it and be sure all is well.

You cant get everything locally so.....

OP, once he has your money, do not expect a return pm/email.

-I asked him about tracking# which was promised, no replies..
-I politely informed him that if he did not return any of my prevoius 4 attempts at pm's, i would have to resort to posting my questions and concerns in the public forum.
^His response was that I was being disrespectful, when he was kind enough to allow me into his GB,
-He flat out lied about the shipping date. He told me one date but when he finally provided the tracking #, the truth was in print.
-Made up some excuse that the "system" was down, and that was why the "date received" was wrong.. Well I spoke with the shipping company and they confirmed that nothing had gone down, they also confirmed that the date received, was indeed correct.
-Used "AUTO" as my last name, which provided some fun at customs. They were going to slam me with fee's, as they were under the impression that I owned an automotive company.

I would not recommend purchasing from Jim, its just not worth the BS headaches.

Good luck!

to all the US folks in this thread, I'm pretty sure he's talking about Canadian experiences in particular, since dealing with shipping across the border is a huge headache for us.

Darren at Intense, great product, prices and service. If you have a problem after the sale, he'll be there and treat you right. No personal experience, but from what I've read here, avoid Showstoppers.
