Improved Navigation

With so many products and different categories on our site we wanted to make it much easier for you to find the product you're looking for. Our new Fly-Out navigation lists each of the major product categories and their sub categories. From there you can navigate via the category pages to find exactly what you're looking for.

More Product Information

On the product page you'll now find much more product related information. Starting with a gallery to showcase multiple product images which we'll be adding to over time. In addition to this we've added related products, and clear information on shipping & delivery times. Finally for major brands such as Chris King, White Industries and Phil Wood you'll find a brand specific footer with further product information.

Responsive Design Including Mobile Compatability

Our new site uses a responsive design so whatever screen size you view this on it will scale to suit. This includes mobile, enabling you to browse product and checkout from your phone.

New Payment Gateway

We've integrated PayPal's Braintree Payment Gateway into the new site to provide a 100% secure and PCI compliant payment process whether you are paying via credit card or PayPal.

User Accounts Carry Over

If you had created an account on our old website, this has been migrated over but you now need to login using your Email Address (and not Username). Your password will remain the same and all of your address details will have been moved over. Going forward you will be able to view any purchase history, but this does not apply to orders prior to June 2018. We still have a full archive of any past orders, so please contact us if you have any questions regarding historical orders.

Free International Shipping

In addition to our existing Free USA Shipping over $75 we've now added a free International Shipping option for orders over $350. Please consult our shipping policies page for more info on this as it only applies to First Class USPS International Shipping.

New Products

You find new products on the site from Astral by Rolf Prima, Knight Composites, Our own AVT Works Custom Wheels and Paul Components latest Purple Ltd Edition Pre-Order amongst others.

Revised Legal Terms & Email Usage

In line with recent EU legislation related to how customer data is used (otherwise known as GDPR), we've updated all of our legal disclaimers; Privacy Policy, Terms & Conditions, Returns Policy, Warranty Policy. We've also adjusted how we collect emails related to newsletter subscriptions to be fully GDPR compliant.

Comments, Feedback & Suggestions

We hope that you find the changes we've made useful and that they improve your browsing and purchasing experience. If you have any comments, feedback or suggestions we'd love to hear them via the contact us page.
