    I'd say your best bet is something like Cross Country couriers. That's who we use at Lexus.

    Yep, we use Cross Country to ship out windshields and such, where I work. Probably worth a shot to ask 'em.

    yeah i shipped my rs hood to canada for some guy who was willing to pay shipping. its too big for standard ground so i had to send it ups freight and it was a huge cluster f***. made it there fine but shipping cost the guy $271. Not cheap!!
