I am currently selling a hood to a person in Massachusetts, and I am wondering who has sent something this big before and how. I had no luck finding a box today big enough. Anyone have any other methods of trying to box or wrap it up so i can ship it. Thanks.

 

just had a body kit shipped to me, for that size it might have to go freight $300+

 

No..its 130 shipped where i went...with weight and size..but its more $ finding a box and wrapping it..but can't find a box!

 

Make a box fool!

 

Have you tried going to a ups store, they might carry a box that big for the hood, what happen to the one that you got when you recieved your hood, don't have to anymore? I'm sure you can find a box for that hood.

 

yeah try ups store

 

Have you tried calling Ethan and asking if he still has what the hood came in...?

 

Its worth trying to go to a bodyshop and asking if they can set one aside for you before they cut the box up, if its a nice bodyshop they will probably do it. BTW I worked in parts and I would say 50% of the time the hoods end up damaged, get insurance on the shipment for sure.

I had to get 2 CF hoods shipped to me because the first one was cracked as if some D-bag played hop-scotch on it.

 

Listen to Eric. You could just get a couple boxes and make your own. But really like I mentioned, it's better to just wrap the hood up instead of trying to get a box. If it's in a box, it'll get tossed around during shipping. If you just wrap it with like bubble wrap and such, they will give it extra care. My current bumper was shipped to me without a box.

 

Big big rolls of bubble wrap should do it!

 

+1, one of our customers is having a body kit shipped to us that is just bubbble wrapped.

 

Tell you what, I have a hood coming off my car and a new hood going on, if you buy my old hood, I'll throw in the box for free.

=0

BTW the hood is in great shape.

 

go to uhaul

 

+1 on making your own box. The "box" that ethan's hood came in was made of 15 diff boxes all taped together.

 

i just recently shipped a hood..... i bubble wrapped it and wrapped cardboard boxes around it .... and taped the snot out of it ..... Had to ship it freight through UPS cost 130$ plus 20$ for the material...... so 150$ to ship it ....

 

May be you should just hold out for it to be bought localy?

 

I can ship it for you motor-freight Armandoooooo, it would be $95 to Mass. and I'll have it wrapped.

BUTTTTTTT I am in Aberdeen

 

Step 1.. Cut a hole in a box!
