Listed for AUS$70 and a quick experiment showed freight as being AUS$32 to Altoona. Seems pretty good to me? They sell mats as well.

(I can't see how they'll be able to honour that freight price, but that's what the site says...)
Thanks a lot for that link!
There are a few things I can pick out right away that I would love to have and I don't care too much about price anyways, just couldn't find them.

At the same time though. I already know that in Australia the cars are configured in a RHD config, like Japan, right?

So even though they have that dashboard mat, man, I can't even get that. :facepalm:
Also, do they only have the clear hood cover?

I can't imagine that they only have the clear. My black OEM hood deflector that I bought a while back is actually made in Australia.

Given you and I have the exact same car (black '11 Sport GTS with 6 speed MT), I can tell you that you really want to get the black deflector. It blends right in with the paint and looks very stealthy and compliments the Sport's side sills and rear spoiler.

Yep. Only see the clear one at the moment on that website. but if they do make them in Australia then that gives me hope.
Will have to make a few calls to down under and see if they have it, but just not listed.

And yes, I've seen it installed and I love the way it looks, so I really, really want it.
