Just an FYI: Due to the screwed up trucking regulations in the U.S. right now it will cost you $400+ just to ship it in from a few States away, making it cost prohibitive.
This is incorrect, Bailout. Greyhound will ship from any station to just about any other station, and that part (about a hundred pounds) will cost $100 or less to ship, even cross country. Great service, fast delivery.

I ship bumpers, seats and wheels this way all the time.

The only drawback is the recipient has to pick it up from the station.

Ahh - ingenious! I never thought of using Greyhound like that. When I wanted to ship a seat I only looked at traditional carriers, all of which quoted outrageous prices, and all which claimed it was because it was "car parts".
