Go with UPS since the size. Check over at UPSstore or UPS.Com The Post Office does not ship it due to it size and weight limitation.

well to do it right you would have to spend a few bucks. but on a crazy note, i recevied a stock front bumper for my 97 in bubble wrap, and it was fine and on the car now.

sometimes its hard to find a big box, so you might have to use several and tape them together.

you should be ok on length at UPS, but if not then you can try fed-ex or fed ex freight .yikes !

good luck

Lots and lots of bubble-wrap... I've done it, and I know others that have too, and it works well. UPS will take it, btw...

Grey Hound is the absolute best way to go. I've done it and it really cheap. They operate 7 days a week which is a plus.
