God, every time some one brings up the ausie site it makes me wana get that nudge bar even more! lol, please mitsu NA, give us those accessories! please!
By the way klas, as you can see, just like you I'm verry much interested in those accesories, sadly the shiping rates would just be insane so all we can do is hope those accesories ever make it to mitsu NA. But I'm not sure if any one has done it, or if there is a loop hole to getting them at a cheaper shiping rate, but it be nice to find out.

Along with the shipping, wouldn't you have to pay duty/taxes?

Yeah, and that would bring the total to almost equal that of the item you bought, even more. Just not practical at this point.

Hi Guys,
I am from Melbourne Australia and yes there' s a lot of accessories for the new Outie but because it's fairly new the cost is still high and if you export it somewhere else it will be too prohibitive. I just recently bought a pair of front mudflaps for AU$90.00 (approx $75) and rear bumper protection plate for AU210.00 ( approx $170.00) just to give you an idea, add to it taxes and duties and it wouldn't be cost effective.
Also some accessories has long waiting periods. As far as I know, they don't have a local supplier yet for the new Outie and everything is being sourced from Japan. I guess, it would be more sensible to find a supplier direct from Japan for the accessories

Believe it or not, even some of the parts manufactured in Japan for other countries have waiting periods of over 2 months to customers in Japan. Some will opt to pay the higher price for immediate delivery depending on desirebility of the part rather than wait.

Yup, that's the headlight washers. Comes standard with the VRX model (equivalent to XLS).

I think that's the way to go if you really want to get the accessories you need ASAP, like I did. Find someone who can deal directly with the suppliers from Japan aside from the dealers.
