Yep, that exchange rate is certainly going to work in our favour

No probs with you ordering at the end of the week - or next week, or the week after... lol. I have so much work to do on the car that its going be a few months before I get around to fitting the bars anyway...

I would be interested in this but I don't have the money until next month + the girlfriend probably wouldn't be too pleased with me spending even more on suspension components when I'm just about to spend £700 on coilovers....

Maybe next time

Ahhh... But there may not be a next time...
Certainly not for these savings...
Also, by the time they get to the Uk and we can sort out delivery it may be late August..

Hahaha, you're tempting me too much.....hmmmmn.... Well, just "out of interest" what price would I be looking at for an ARB for a S40 (1998) - $218 rrp...

This is looking bad for my credit card....

Well $218 less 10% plus $30 currently £ is £188.42 then add the likely 17.5 VAT = £139.15 or there abouts
Delivery cost will be confirmed at ordering time as IPD have to calc the pallet cost by USPS

Well, see payments mentioned above as it will be likely that my other half (aka "Da Boss") will CC pay the lot in the US and then sort out payments here - dependant on the actual exchange rate (and it is worth noting that the £ is gaining on the $ day by day, little by little ), VAT and any necessary delivery from us to you (or by petrol contribution If we meet in the middle of nowhere)..

well Griz says it makes one hell of a lot of difference but then he is using uprated shocks and springs

I've fitted uprated eiback roll bars to vw's before and they kept the factory fitted springs and shocks but the handling was greatly improved so I would imagine the same can be said of the IPD bars

Ill have to do my sums as my 940s handling is a bit boaty (but then its a volvo, what do I expect) but im not exactly flush with money and im getting married this year so anti roll bars are not on the list of essensials at the minute!
