Sheefa Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 It's here, a beautiful piece of craftmanship I must say in replacement of my stock radiator. Looks the nuts and I hear it's pretty damn good too at cooling! Cost £240 including delivery. However, Can I fit it myself? NO. Was it mean't to be delivered to my home address? NO. Was there a specific reason why I asked for it to be delivered to Chris Wilsons address - YES, because my bloody car's there! Damn. Another £30 gone on posting this giant thing there. Oh well, all worth it in the end I suppose................ Greg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheefa Posted October 30, 2006 Author Share Posted October 30, 2006 Thanks Colin. That was a rough guestimate mate - who should I use to ensure it's secure in the post but also well priced? Hopefully, Greddy FMIC should arrive this week and Tranny cooler has already arrived. With a bit of luck I'll have her back by Mid November but I'll let Chris work his magic however long it takes Will post up some pics when she's all done. Cheers, Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mas Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 Greg, Royal mail is what I usually use but was asking colsoop to see who he used for sending the wheels , as I think £25 is not bad at all. I send my facelift front lights with £500 insurance paid about £10 with royal mail, considering the box I wraped the lights in was very big that was a good price mate, so you should be fine and cant see they charge fore than £15 for the radiator.
