Racing Beat A/C and Cooler Screens Arrived

Well, I decided to buy the Racing Beat protection screens rather then build my own (as per the DIY) and save a lot of money. I ordered them last Friday and I picked them up today so they got here pretty quick.

I figured that they would run me somewhere around $120 Canadian after converion duty and taxes but surprise, UPS adds a hefty brokerage fee. How much you ask? only $45.89, you heard me right, $45.89!!! Did a little search on the web and found out that UPS charges the most of anyone in the world. If I would have known that I would have called Racing Beat and ask them to deliver it through a different courier.

Anyways, the product looks to be very well made which is expected from Racing Beat, just need to set some time aside to pull my bumper off for the installation.

It may have costed more then I expected but still MUCH cheaper then having to replace any of the coolers or rad from a stone damage or something if it was to happen.

Never ever get anything shipped via ups! They rip you off bad. Not sure where you are, but if you're near the border, have the items shipped to a US postal service place. If you're in Vancouver, check out www.thelettercarrier.com in Point Roberts. That's where I have stuff shipped to. Cheap!
