u-haul has a bunch of different sized boxes. I had to find a 3 1/2' long box to ship a center console from a car (sold some pieces on ebay). It ended up being like $30 to ship even though it was really light. I imagine you could use wrap as long as you protect it really well. Maybe wrap it in that thick cardboard type paper first and then wrap it in plastic.

I shipped a set of door panels from my old Scion. I didn't have any boxes they would fit in, so I had the place I mailed them from pack them. They wrapped them up nice and made a box around them. It didn't cost very much and I could have done it myself if I had found a big enough box.

i ship them all the time. i just use flat card board and make my own box to fit around them. Just so you know ups will charge you $5 extra if they are not covered in card board. Also check out their size requirements b/c if you box the door panels too big then it will put them in an oversize clasification and you will pay double to ship them.

I had and exhaust shipped to me like that and I was wondering if that was why...
