Anyone shipped large car parts to US from UK?
Anyone shipped any large car parts (bumpers, spoilers etc) to US from UK?
... or anything else that size??
Seems the spoiler i'm trying to send is just too big to send at a reasonable cost.
Any advice would be appreciated

We found it difficult to find competitive rates for items this size. The problem is you are paying for Volumetric Weight, so it can be very light but if its large they charge for the size.
The price usually becomes uneconomical once you go over a metre in length and in some cases we were quoted £400 to ship a bumper.

I had same problem when I sold a complete dash, for some reason someone in america wanted my rhd dash assembly but I tried everywhere I could think of and some I hadn't heard of and couldnt get a reasonable price to ship, I ended up giving up and sold it to someone in the uk,
