Xander Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 Hi all, I am looking to get a type 1 airdam (no ducts) for my 240Z. The problem is that shipping to the netherlands is a mayor problem. I am willing to pay any reasonable amount but the prices for shipping on ebay are just nuts. They are asking more than $600 for shipping!!!. Does anyone know of a good way to get an airdam to the netherlands???? Perhaps It's cheaper to cut an airdam in halve, ship it and mold it back together??? Is it not possible to just write my address on the airdam and ship it without packaging it? Any help or ideas will be greatly appreciated.

Xander good god $600 for shipping If you'd like i could buy a new type 1 airdam (Fiberglass or Urethane?) from MSA and ship it over the the Netherlands. I'm sure it would be cheaper than $600. PM me you address and i'll try and provide you with a price quote for the air dam shipped to you door.

GOTHALOSISM Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 Shipping to Europe is not cheap. I tried to ship 2 mugs to england and they wanted $150 for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xander Posted June 25, 2010 Author Share Posted June 25, 2010 It is possible to ship a box that is 60" long via USPS. maximum length plus girth is 108". Can someone please measure a type one airdam? If it is slightly less than 60" long the box can be shipped for just $101,20 !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xander Posted June 25, 2010 Author Share Posted June 25, 2010 that would definitly be an option. It's just that I was hoping to get the car painted before the end of summer Thanks anyway. You don't happen to have the dimensions of a type 1 airdam do you?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Challenger Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 (edited) Would it be easier to go through japan? Ive shipped an intake manifold to australia for like $120. Shipping an airdam in the states is generally in the $150 range. I wouldnt be suprised at $600. Edited June 25, 2010 by Challenger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xander Posted June 25, 2010 Author Share Posted June 25, 2010 I took a gable and last month I bought an airdam from ebay. It was made in thailand and the shipping was only $110. As expected the airdam is totally useless. It will not fit at all. But it was realatively cheap to ship. The box it came in was about 59x12x20. But I really need the dimensions of a good airdam. I can always go for the urethane one. That one will surely fit inside the 60" limit. hmmmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I can ship via DBSchenker and it won't be that expensive especially if I ship door to airport. That's how I ship hoods and hatches to Europe, Australia, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators RTz Posted June 26, 2010 Administrators Share Posted June 26, 2010 Type 1, mounted on car, 59 3/4" overall. However, they are very flimsy. It will fit into a 60" box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am looking for a good airdam as well, and like you I live in Holland so getting stuff over is expensive... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
