I had a set of front fenders shipped from the mid west to san diego california via a trucking company... it was about $125 (4 years ago), but the seller had to drop them at one of the shipping company docks, and my wife had to go pick them up in San Diego... door to door shipping was going to be $450.00!!!

greyhound bus might take it too, but that is a pretty big item.


Another quality post.

If its an AD hood, you can split it in half and put the pieces inside eachother.

If you know the size & weight most of the shippers have calculators on their web pages.
