I have had a friendly and informative email conversation with Saiji @ Maruha Motors in Japan.  We have traded several email over the past couple of days.  Maruha seems to have quality products , and I have my eye on their beautiful carbon fiber timing belt cover and oil pan baffle.  i had such a positive experience with Saiji and Maruha’s customer service that i placed an order this evening.  Ordering was done via email and shipping is handled via Express Mail Service, or EMS.  According to Saiji, delivery should occur within 2 weeks.
