Default How to Mail 350Z Bumper?

UPS wants $400 freight. I see shipping on ebay for $69.99 How can I mail this bumper? I've never had such a hard time mailing something.

What's a good way of boxing it?

I've mailed a complete turbo back exhaust without too much trouble b4.

+1 for Greyhound. I mailed a front bumper for my evo through Greyhound and it was around $80.

If you ship it without a box, you can prob ship it without it being freight. That's how it was for me when I got a new front bumper sent to me for my Grand Am.

It was shipped via UPS, and wasn't freight.

Note that the bumper was urethane, so if you're shipping fiberglass, I don't recommend this.

on a somewhat related note but not quite (sorry for hijacking, but im sure the mods wouldnt want to waste bandwidth)

delivering a bumper, via 350z. Has anybody tried driving a bumper to somewhere? i dont really see how it would fit in the passenger side unless 2/3 of it is sticking out the window, IF it even fits out the window.

maybe if you squish the front of the bumper so it meets the back hatch glass and let the edges hang down. then tie a string to the hatch.

a stock 350z bumper will fit in a 350z. It goes over the strut bar and into the passenger area. Youll have to move the passenger seat to make it fit.
