Overseas shopping
I live in Dubai, UAE, but need an evo shop which can provide me with all the parts I need to build up my evo bit by bit.
And to be arrange all the shipping to my door in the UAE, all without ripping me off.
Rather than going with some huge retailer i'd prefer to go with someone smaller who will personally be contactable if needed and provide excellent customer service.
I know its a lot to ask for but if anyone has any suggestions that would be a great place to start.
Thanks in advance

I had the same issue when I was looking to build my car. From my experience, there are also a lot of big vendors who care for their customers at least as the small retailers do. You should check their sales rating, customer feedbacks and threads about their products/services. The best ever that I dealt with were (and are) Phil from 201motorsports and Tom from ETS, but there are many others.

Check with Gruppe-S. I ordered a lot of my parts from them. Their prices were excellent, when I spoke with them personally, they were very nice people, and they have free shipping within the US so I'm sure in Dubai you would be able to get a decent shipping price. Also, I was very happy with Vivid Racing as well. Very very nice people working for them and very personable.

My friend why don't you try aramex, I think their head office is in Dubai, and they have a branch here in Kuwait, I order most of my parts through them and it arrives to Kuwait within a week or so.

are you a member on www.evolve.ae ? If not I would start there Ryan, Moosa, and Tom can help you out quite a bit with their experiences with ordering parts into Dubai from the states....
