I've always found beams to be one of the first things to go and it's surprising how far people will travel when they want something.________________________________________ |

TNT or similar would surely be worth an enquiry as long as you know the rough weight of the beam?________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone  |

£60 squid from palletline using a random postcode in mold :/Don't particularly fancy paying that twice :S ( Sending the old beam up afterwards) I've asked CRSPARES who he uses as he sends beams every now and then at around 100 posted so I presume he pays a fair bit less than 60! ________________________________________ Ex- Phase 3 China GTi-6 T-Reg |

just make sure you know details of how to package.i've received axles in the past as it was taken off a car with just an address label on  yet when i had to sort a courier to send one, i wrapped cardboard and bubble wrap around pointy edges and company refused t take it! i literally had to make it look like i'd put the beam in a box before they took it. one reason i prefer people to collect, as it's a real hassle spending ages wrapping. packaging not cheap either ________________________________________ FRESHLY RE-FURBISHED GTI BEAMSFITTING AND LOWERING AVAILABLE.

best collecting really at least you know it will arrive in the same condition it left the seller in then. I wouldn't trust "Tuffnells", it would need a refurb indefinately after arrival. I know how their employees treat stuff and believe me it isn't pleasant to watch! LOL ________________________________________ I Live for the 306TEAM CHERRY PINK RALLYE 2008 BMW ///M 320d |
