Cruise the car meets until you fine one you like and then....

The joys of living in Canada where car parts are always imported and shipping fees cost 5 times anyplace else.

HAHAHA I found a flight this weekend to japan that is cheaper then shipping it. Round trip too so I could just go pick it up and save a few hundred lol!

Until you get to Customs and the inspector's eyes light up when they think of the duty and taxes they are going to collect.

Ahh but you see but maybe I could stay 48 hours (rent an frs and live in it for 2 days) then I will be allowed to bring $800 back duty free so I can claim the bumper was only $795

Now, in seriousness would it be cheaper to have it sent to one of those U.S. mail drop places and drive down to pick it up? I know I can get much better deals having stuff sent to Detroit and then I just jump over and get it there. May not make sense going from Calgary though.

Was worth a shot. Some things you can save a pile doing that.
Looks like you are packing for Japan again.

I'll be laughing at the part where you fly over there and aren't able to find the bumper.
