So I found this RHD website with some pretty JDM parts, but all of the "yen" talk scared me lol. P.S. Based on the pics you saw of this cover, do you think that is oil smudge he didn't wipe of before pic, grease stain that something like Mothers can take off, or slight denting of the cover? Good deal either way, but I'm going to try to (or have YOU try to haha) make it as perfect as possible

Now that is some funny ****! Here's the catch to those places.. Yes they are a bit cheaper than buying from a us vendor... And this is why... Think amazon... They are very similar. They outsource through Japan warehouse distributors... So when you send them an email about a certain part they call warehouses til they find it and then sell it to you.. If its large you have to do airport pick up which means paying customs fees etc.. So for small parts its ok, but BP auto price matches when possible and they can get all of the parts these places sell so I will continue to deal with them.. Keep yo money in the US... And stimulate Japan's economy at the same time haha (huge run-on paragraph...)

Three sentences into that explanation, I was reminded why I have a G.E.D., as everything got fuzzy and confusing
