Why is it that there are a number of accessories available for the Forester in the US, that we can't get here. There are more options and the majority of the standard accessories are substantially cheaper in the US (including shipping) than they are here!
As examples, I'm about to order painted Splash Guards (Mud Flaps), a Front End cover (Car Bra) and chrome exhaust tip, none of which we can get here.
The Car Covers, Cargo Tray (available in Beige as opposed to black only), Bumper corner moudling, bumper cover (Rear Step) etc. etc are all substantially cheaper in the US.
Is it just markup here in Aus, or are there other factors involved?
What have other members bought from US that are either cheaper or not available here?
