I have been trying to locate a good Canadian source for the Absorber. All the online seaches I found are American, for $12.95 or so, and then when exhange and shipping is added, it's about $18 US, which is almost $30 Canadian!!!



I checked our Walmart here, and they hardly carry any of the products you guys mention, such as TW Tire Gel, Absorbers, and the like. Anyone with knowledge of a good cheap source, please chime in! Thx.
 
In Ontario the distributor for Finish First carries "The Absorber". You can contact them at 1-800-807-8834. You can have them ship to you (shipping is reasonable) and they are nice people.

The big problem is that our Loonie ain't worth nuttin. Many of us have to rely on AutoBody supply shops for decent supplies. I've been waiting 6 weeks for a Meguiar's backing plate for my PC.
 
My friends in Toronto get em at Crappy Tire I think. I don't know if they have those in Vancouver. I'll buy one for you and ship it up to you if you are looking. They are less than 9 bucks USD at WalMart here and I'm sure I could get it up to you for about 5 bucks. If you don't find it there then PM me and we can talk. :xyxthumbs
 
Yeah, we have Crappy Tire here too. But they also don't have the Absorber. Thanks for the offer, Jngrbrdman, I'll keep that in mind. But I am going to look locally some more. I just that there was some place close by. I might also look the next time I cross the border (Bellingham is only 45 minutes away).



I also checked some suppliers in Ontario, and I saw the one that carried Finish First. But it's the same story. They want $18 CDN and $5 shipping, so it's like $23 to get it here.



I might pop in on one of the outdoor shows too, since they usually carry it. Too bad I missed the car and motorcycle shows. I know they would have had a booth.
 
My friend works at Canadian Tire and they carry quite a lot of products. If you ask the parts guys about the "Keystone Catalogue," they will get there thick catalogue worth of aftermarket parts and detailing accessories. I bought my California Water Blade 2 years ago through the keystone catalogue before they had it as a stocked item. Crap Tire is crap for auto parts but don't underestimate what you can get through the keystone catalogue. You can also get Eibach, H&R suspension parts if you wanted. If the parts guys don't know, ask the Parts Manager as he must know. :) Good Luck.
 
hey I'm from BC too and I've gotten a hold of the absorber at Mopac. I bought mine from the Kingsway store.
 
genX, you da man! I know exactly where that is, by the Crappy Tire that closed down. I have gotten some Redline performance products from them. I'll check it out this weekend. Thx, guys.
 
Nice:up I've always found prices here in Canada to be cheaper than US...if only we had more products to choose from.

By the way, I was informed that there was a distributor for Zaino in Richmond but not too sure from the name. You guys know where I could find these products here without having to ship it from states? ie. Zaino, Pinnacle, P21S, etc. basically the good stuff:D
 
Have delt with car-fanatic. Placed my order via fax, rec'd order the next day. Can't say it would be that quick for everyone else. Guess it depends on where u live.
