Re: Replacement rub rail and windshield
It sucks to hear about guys that won't ship to Canada. Especially when we are willing to pay the shipping fees. I kind of get it though.
Another tip for anybody Canadian that wants to ship over the border. Do NOT use UPS, their brokerage fees are absolutely ridiculous, I have paid 120$ shipping for 140$ worth of parts. Ship with USPS, which will then come Canada Post. While it still isn't American postage pricing, they have been consistently the most reasonable on all the crap I have ordered from the US.
Hippie, if you change your mind about shipping a few decals let me know.
Sorry for the Hijack. I will need to replace my rub rail sometime this year, if I ever get that far in the rebuild.

Re: Replacement rub rail and windshield
That is the issue I have, It almost cost more to send them to Canada then the actual cost of the decal and I have had a few items get lost forever going up there so I just dont do it really.canuckr wrote:Hippie, if you change your mind about shipping a few decals let me know.

Re: Replacement rub rail and windshield
Been a long time coming,but I just got back from Hydrostream Canada with a brand new upper deck.Got to help take it out of the mold! The repairs to the hull are nearing completion.Got a sample of the rub rail that John is using on the rebuilds he is doing.Its a black vinyl with a metal core.It looks ok when installed properly.Will post some pics when a little further along.
