I could tell you a GREAT horror story on mine but it would be so long to tell it all here. But let me tell you this much. It is over the girth restrictions by both FedEx Ground, FedEx Express and UPS. The girth limit is 165" and it will total 247". That puts it to have to go freight which will cost about $200. I had so much trouble with the person I bought the T/A bumper I have now that I ended up having to go with UPS issue a call tag and ended up costing me $186 and should've been $80 had he done what a normal thinking person would've done. You can ship it Greyhound for about $80. Here's their website:

. I dont think too many people notice its a girl that has this car ...happens alot. I thought making it say Michelle in big letters would help but it hasnt. The measurements I was giving was for the bumper itself. Good luck on the shipping...I'm sure it will go alot better them mine did
