People who bought front clips, shine some light on me Options

Okay im trying to convince my dad that instead of a rebuild, a 3sgte swap is a better route.

Already contacted RpmGarage and they gave me quotes on shipping and other stuff.

Those who ordered front clips or took part in the process of someone ordering a clip know how long it took? Also their experience with Customs, taxes and fees, getting the clip from point A to point be.

They told me the clip would be in Hawaii in 3-5 weeks (pretty damn fast ) but i would have to battle through Customs and taxes and all that good stuff Then there's getting the clip loaded and driven oh....35 miles to my house where the magic is supposed to happen

Soo...........share with me. Make me feel more confident in getting the clip

Also so i can show this to my pops <--will delete this sentence after

the freight company will call you once it arrives. then you go there and they will hand you the necessary documents so you can claim it yourself at customs. you then bring the paperwork to your local customs office, show them the papers, and pay your customs fees. they'll give you clearance after that and you go back to the freight company to get it. you either have them load it for you on your truck, or you can have them deliver it to you (and pay the additional delivery charges). expect to pay quite a bit for customs (up to or around ~30% of the total value of the front clip before S&H).
