- If you choose to pay by credit card, you will be directed to a third party secure payment page to enter your card details. Your card will be instantly authorised but no payment will be taken until your parts are ready to ship.
- Once completed, your order will flash up on our system and at the same time, an automated confirmation email will ping into your lnbox (assuming you provide an email address). At this point, you should double-check all the details on the order and let us know if there is anything incorrect.

Out of Stock Items
- If a part you have ordered is not currently available, we will email you to let you know how long it is likely to be before the item becomes available again. You will then have the option to wait for when the part is available or cancel your order. Either way, we don't charge to a card until goods are ready to ship.
Shipping
- We use the following shipping methods (which may vary subject to availability and cost):
- Domestic Freight is by trackable courier and has a target delivery time of 1-3 days. Rural deliveries can take longer. All packages must be signed for so no PO Boxes are permitted.

Note that chrome plating is a porous finish and should be kept in a way to prolong life and prevent corrosion, ie keep it clean, dry it off, wax/seal it.
