[net.auto] Euro mailorder

Hi,

When I was in Europe last week, I noticed that auto accessories were
a lot cheaper (for foreign cars).  A set of Momo basket wheels for a
VW or BMW were going for about 180 dollars.  Fog light kits were
about 40 bucks, spoilers for every car imaginable (fronts) for 75 bucks!
And european tires (P7, P6, NCT, 660, Ralley ) were about 30% less.

Does anyone know about costs and problems (tariffs) of shipping doodads
like alloy wheel from Europe to the US?   Thanks in advance, will post
response summary if requested.
