What's In ALM's Garage?

[5.0ALM]

Thanks for this video @5.0ALM. Mine are ready to go on as soon as I get my car!

How did you get them?
Others might be interested as well.
(I did a quick Google before recording but didn't come up with any Aussie vendors)

I just used a forwarding service - Stackry is what I used but there are a few others.

Its expensive, but I wanted them for the same reasons you chose them as well. Not wanting to cut or modify anything on my S650.

Ok, great.
I knew they existed, but was never pushed to the point of having to actually find and use one.... yet.
Have bookmarked them.

Let us know how it goes.

Yeah the whole process worked fairly easy and the delivery was pretty speedy. I have all these goodies, just no car to put it on yet lol

Thanks for the heads up Adam. I bring in filters for my water ionizer yearly from the US and the cost is expensive. Also buying parts for my DH and Boss from sellers who do not send to Oz or charge excessively for the service could be a big saving. Also I like the bundle option.
Wish I was aware of this service years ago. Great, cheers John.

The Chiseled Rear End + Rain = First World Problems!

I've been caught having to drive on wet roads on two occasions now, being in our storm season up here in tropical QLD.

One thing that has become apparent with the 7th Gen chiseled design is how wonderfully efficient the rear end is with retaining road grime.

Nowhere else on the vehicle retains so much grot as along it's rear end.

Were the S550's as bad?

Perhaps choosing a grey colour to mask this more should have been on the agenda two years ago!

I guess not having proper mud flaps is not helping, so I'll be researching this and try to find something that;

1) Isn't a rip off
2) Actually ships to Australia
3) Doesn't look like it came off Grandad's Camry

What? You drove it in the rain?

Kidding of course.

The back of our white Volkswagen Golf looks the same after a rainy day Mud flaps may help a bit, but I think you will still see those water-marks.
Stay safe in this stormy weather, it's been crazy ‍ My GT is due in January and I cannot wait!!!
By the way, I'm sort of "new" here... I've kept my sanity by following this forum so I can see how others are progressing

Welcome along PTR GT - another Brissie bound Stang...

It's no fun looking at the car sitting in the garage while these storms are floating around - never quite sure whether it is safe to take it out or not. The detailers that did my Ceramic coating offer a free first wash after the coating, but I haven't been game enough to take it to work for the day in case a storm comes through.

Thanks heaps VB50GT

Yess, I totally get you I would be the same for sure, especially with the current weather changes

Keep us updated on your vehicles arrival.
A few more to join in on the occasional S/E QLD cars 'n coffee would be great.

That's great! Thanks for the invitation too!! Hopefully I can swing by to at least say Hi and to introduce myself
Will definitely send some updates about the car. Most likely it's still in Baltimore and hopefully on a vessel soon

Hey mate, I just put in a order for front rock guards from ZL1 add-ons. They do ship to Australia at least.
