Any one have tips on shipping plastic, I be greatly appreciate. Already got rid of mine and order graphics & seat cover.

they are big it costs alot no tips sorry. we bought a set of banshee rear fenders in the states for 20$ US by the time we got them they cost 145 cnd. it sucks.

Well he is doing something wrong. When I had my frame shipped to me it cost I think 45 dollars, the frame is way bigger than plastics, and heavier. I also bought a set of plastics, front and rear, hood, seat and seat pan, I got all of those for 140 shipped to my door. Ether he really didn't want those plastics, or you guys are doing something wrong. Sorry I can't be of more help finding where to ship but I can say that I know from buying them before 145 to ship plastics is just BS.

that price is about right. Plastics are large and will require and oversize box. So shipping will be atleast 120$ goin ups and then they will charge him atleas 25$ for a box.

I work for a ups store and i dont even flinch at those prices. totaly normal...

what ever he is shipping the plastic in is too big ups calls it an oversize 3 pkg, if he can get the dimentions down to an oversize 2 it should cut the price in half.. Oem honda 400ex plastic is expensive to ship in the oem box (oversize3) its around $80. Maier is smart there box's are oversize2

If he calculated the shipping wrong, it's his fault, not yours:ermm:
