I'm trying to gauge real interest in a possible "group buy", or really, "group ship" of euro parts for our MB's. I personally am looking for a W126 euro gen2 rear bumper to replace one that was just damaged thanks to a distracted driver who caused a 4 car pileup, and I know a few others looking for parts. I have found breakers in the UK with plenty of bumpers for example, around $150-450 USD before shipping (depending on condition, the breaker, etc). They all seem to not be interested in individual shipping, even when I offered to pay whatever it was, to compare to the cost of buying what I need new. Anyhow, then I figured if enough people were willing to actually buy stuff, we might have enough to do a container and split the cost and make it more affordable.

So...who is really interested? I know they have euro lights, bumpers, wheels, steering wheels, tri-y headers, etc at a minimum, possibly more.

Basic idea is to compile a list of desired parts from committed buyers, find someplace overseas to sell us the whole lot, stick it in a container, then send it over here to be distributed.

300D flywheels? 5 speed transmissions?

I'd be interested in wheels and/or euro lights. (and a complete euro 5 speed transmission that I can bolt on in a few hours...)

As an update, I'm having a tough time finding places that have all the parts we need. I'm still looking, but as of right now, it isn't looking like we'll be able to pull off this group buy.
