Alo!
Alo!
Just joined. Am I the only South African member? Are any of you guys in Aus planning a trip to SA? I'd luv some of those Clear Altezza tail lights (the black ones) form Ozparts. But the shipping and import tax (import tax 39% for automotive accessories in SA!!!) will cost me more that the lights ! But I want them desperately! I have never seen a Astina here with them! Must have! |

Hi !
I'm almost South African. My parents lived and married in SA and then moved to Australia, then I was born. Where are you from ? I have family in Jo'burg, Durban and Cape Town. Hopefully I'll go over there again soon. |

Hi Ryan
Well last week I found out that a friend of mine's brother is going to Aus in March, so I'm hoping to convince him to bring the lights along. Please let me know when you are coming though just in case my friend doesn't work out. Where in SA are you going? |

Hi Cindy,
I think we are the only 2 SA members. I am from Cape Town. Going to make a trip to Jozi soon as i want Louis Lima to sort my turbo gremlins out for me and fit a NOS kit as well Guys I think it unfair that Cindy gets a set only. I want a set of that lights to. Oh I would love to get my hands on the whiteline swaybar kit as my car really needs that. We do not have any aftermarket parts for the Astina here I envy u Aus okes!!!!
