Romeo, I should be going back in the next few days to grab that console lid for Vinnie and possibly a few other parts.  Only thing is, I have no idea how to ship something like that.

Just Shrink Wrap/Plastic Food Wrap it up and mail it like a package probably, Might even fold (Not Sure). This is how i received a 3 piece rear bumper ground effects one time.
I think also if you take it to the Post Office they have giant rolls of brown paper, And you could ask them to roll it in that, then tape it all up. :hick:

If anyone else has any ideas on shipping this~Please let me us know ASAP!
Would really like this for my T-Bird.

I have one that I'm going to try to see if it'll work in my 88. I hope it will, I think it's a nice finish piece. As far as shipping, get a large piece of cardboard and make a big envelope by folding it around it.

Oh yea, That's how my louvers were sent to me. :cheers:
Is it a solid molded piece or is it flexible? Like, Would it fold at all?

shrink wrap is the best way to go, I just sent a console and a trunk liner set out shrink wrapped it cuts down on the cost of shipping because of the overall size and is pretty durable. I built a  brace out of some old corner molding to keep from bending the liner all up. the trunk lid carpet is the same once folded it's junk, has a hard backing

Like hcor said, you don't want to fold it. I've never tried to ship just using shrink wrap but it makes scense. I just like using cardboard, I think it gives some added protection.

Yeah, I can do it.  I can stop by Fedex of UPS store here in the next few days and see how they recommend to package it.  If you are sure you want it, I can just go ahead and pick it up and take it in with me to get you a shipping price.

I've got another pending purchase, So i need to make my paypal funds work (for both transactions).
I should have enough... But any idea how much they might charge for the liner at the yard?

And for those of you who have shipped similar items~How much did it cost you?

I think they charge $20 for full interior carpeting, so it should be less than that.  Probably $10 or $15.  If you need, I can pick it up and hold on to it until you're sure your good on funds.
