Does anyone know of accessories, mods (i.e. body kits) suppliers located in Canada? A lot of the suppliers on this forum don't seem keen to ship to Canada, the customs duties make it cost prohibitive for the buyers as well.

most of the Canadian guys have to import there stuff anyways and they just tack on all of there shipping and duties that they incurred intot he price they sell to you for so in the end it doesn't really make a difference I don't think. I noticed there was one Canadian vendor selling carbon fiber body parts in the classifieds section.

that is so true.

I wish we had like Californian shops here... Damn Californians! . but yes, there are too many shops for performance Trucks (in Calgary) . and almost none for European cars.

Yeah I just called a so called 'performance shop for BMWs' in Mississauga and was told to look online and then they would get it for me! I can do that myself.

Sucks!
