MADLT1 - thanks for that - I've sent them an email asking for airmil postage cost. Pays to do that with some ebay sellers bumping up costs!
I bought a grill the other day from an ebay seller who quoted US$130 post. I replied back questioning why she is charging me $130 when I bought the other side grill from a vendor and paid only $40 postage. I also then added that I wanted to buy some other chrome etc from her and would pass if she didn't charge me actual post without up charging. She very quickly replied back with a "new" postage cost of $55 for all the items! Bloody scammer's. Need to be on your toes!
Anyway - I've been looking at these:

I'm not 100% sure how the fit is with the Lakewood's though and I don't know if they're a direct swap. I sent Lakewood an email yesterday but don't expect a reply straight away being weekend.

its not just ebay seelers that do that demon.....some of the well known and BIG corvette aftermarket suppliers also try this trick..... buddy with a 69 tri power big block and a 77 has all kind of trouble with some of the larger well known companies trying the " australia is so far away and there is an extra packing charge,and also a fee to drive the part to the post office so thats triple the price thanks" tactic.....
stick to your guns,even with the big shops and they will prob drop the price....
try MAXX WRENCH for parts as well.....he a true vette lover and will look after you...tell him nifty sent you.
