Did you have to pay duty or vat on receipt of the tips? My tracking says the parcel is still in customs and a friend reckons you have to pay duty on imports. Is that right?

The lower value indicated??? The invoice value will be $399. And whatever PayPal converted to £ that day. Will I have to call customs to release it and pay 20% vat before they do or do I pay parcel force when they deliver? I've never bought for overseas before when customs have got involved... Sorry if these questions are daft...

I need (2) 4-inch tips to replace the stock tips on a F10 535. But the problem is that there is only room for a tip with the maximum length of 5 inches. is there any tips that are short enough to fit this?

Thanks for clearing that up. Makes sense now. Paid £17.50 over the phone today, assume handling charge and duty, and delivery on route Tuesday ...:-)

It's up to you really, how far out/in you want them. I pushed them in more like the stock tips. When you remove the stock tips, you'll notice the exhaust tube flares at the end. CYBA tips fit snugly over the flared portion. I set them in more so I fastened the screws to the thinner portion of the exhaust tube. It's very secure. I noticed some people pushed theirs out further, but I liked OEM depth. Drewm5 has the cf tips and has some pointers for me, you can ask him to see if it's any different since they're angled, not sure if they're shorter or not. |
