Why use a importer (broker) to do what you can do? All they would do is pay the RIV fee and the GST on your behalf and then charge you more for doing so.

Customs fills out all the paperwork you need. You would still have to get the clearance letter and have the RIV safety done yourself (and any conversions the car needs to pass the safety). If your having the car shipped, have it shipped to a drop point near the border. Drive down and get the car. Drive to the border. Have Customs fill out the paperwork. Pay the GST and then drive home.
