Hi all - hoping to find a solution!

Could someone please help me out with some options for what the best way to arrange used parts to be shipped from UK the Australia?

My problem is - I'm after a 318is M42 exhaust manifold - which is no longer available from BMW and very rare in Aust.

What are my options?

Are there Breakers I should be contacting that ship internationally or something??

Advice is much appreciated :-)

My best advice would be to have a better one made in aus.

Your other best option is to put a wanted add up here and see if one of the breakers on here will post one.
