Good/Reliable Wrecking yards in Europe?

Post by LegacyT »

Anyone know of Any good and reliable parts yards in Europe? I want to get a set of sideskirts and rear bumper lips for my Sport sedan. I know of a few in Australia and New Zealand but shipping charges are pathetic.

Thanks,
Mark

In Finland and Sweden there are multiple places, but the shipping charges appear to be about the same as from NZ or Australia.

i think the biggest problem is the bulk - they're not heavy, but occupy a lot of space. So they end up charging you by cube volume, and not cube weight.

What you might want to do is to talk to a customs broker - they may know someone in the shipping business in the perspective area youre looking for, and can score shipping for a heavily discounted rate.
