from what i hear strafe is the best quality but prices are pretty high

Ionic or whatever his name is also has pretty good quality and prices are lower

your best bet is to drop ship to a US mailbox and go over the boarder to pick it up

Arch industries.

Best bumpers out there. shipping is $100 you just need a company to broker it for you since they only ship freight.

This. For calgary though, as I could use new front and possibly rear to prepare for sale.

I'm not from Alberta.

Do a google search for import broker for your area. Give a few of them a call and they can give you an idea on what its going to cost you.

I would like to get a big shipment sent up but my car is on the back burner for the first time in 5years. Our house needs TLC and Daddy needs a 60" TV

Lets talk again mid summer I know of 4-5 guys that i have had PM conversations about this, but timing has never been right.

I would start a thread to get guys in title it "Alberta guys interested in get parts shipped together from Strafe".

I have talked to Dustin from Strafe before about this and he was good about it.

ive always told members if they get a lower quote from another vendor on here shoot it over to me and i will gladly beat it.

Almost_darkness Ya strafe is good but there shipping is more than the bumper drop shipping would be ideal but I am way too far from the border to do that
again, i have no problem beating other vendors quotes.. just show me the lower price and its a done deal
