Four long brown boxes arrived...(BMW related!)

My Concierge called me this morning to tell me that 4 long boxes arrived for me yesterday and it's in the security holding room. Now what could that be? I haven't purchased anything of late from eBay. But I did receive an email a few days from our Performance Parts vendor from the US telling me that I should be receiving some spoilers soon...ok so who ordered the spoilers and who wants to pick them up tonight?

Hi Wayne, each box should be marked, as well as having invoices with our names enclosed. I'll PM you my mobile number if you'd like to arrange a time for me to come and pick up my stuff

Is that a boomerang in my sun room??? Nope, it's a CF spoiler! It's so light! It's gonna look good on our cars. Hope my wife doesn't get annoyed with all these boxes coming soon.

Did this come from Gravity Wayne? I paid up a few weeks back but still no contact, shipping advice etc. I'm getting pissed off!

Spdrcr, yes this is from Drew @ Gravity. What did you buy? The goods came nicely packaged and was perfect. No issue for us so far.

For anyone else who is planning to do the install, here is an excellent video instruction!

I bought kidney grilles, gp thunder bulbs and pedals and he was supposed to ship to me directly. He didn't happen to stick it in with your shipment did he?

picked up my spoiler, and damn it is light!
spdrcr, we havnt recieved the grilles, lights, or pedals, that is meant to be in another shipment coming in a few days, so yours may only be a couple of days away. have you tried emailing him?

Well, yes and no. My stocks are taking a hammering

Wayne, speak to Gravity or Dan@United. It's pretty light, so I doubt THAT much

It's not the weight, it's the size of the box that makes it expensive!

I'm working on some pricing, it looks so far as if most is really simple, like the mirror covers, spoiler, grills.

As i have said to most people who have PM 'd or emailed me, until i get a car and see for myself i won't know exactly how much everything costs, i'm not like a BMW dealer where they have things nutted to the last cent, and i'm always looking for deals for the 1 addicts 'crew' so when i'm confident of accurate quoting, i'll let be happy to forward on some prices.

Way,

You attending BMW Melb on Sat?

If so, any chance you can bring my Thunder Bulbs? I've ordered two lots, but only one may have arrived by now.
