Any ideas on the best / cheapest way to ship big parts cross country like GT3RS seats and rollbars? I used Greyhound before, but I haven't used them in a long time.

its more expensive now,- I say Use Fedex - best way is to talk fedex directly. ask them which way is cheaper. weight. size. I don't think cheaper way exists, maybe by sea ?

Ck986 is infamous around these parts
I used grayhound to ship a bumper 5 years ago. I was happy with their service.

for seats go to uhaul and buy a large garment box. then buy a large cheap blanket and a roll of shrink wrap. shrink wrap the seats then slide 1 seat into the box. wrap the blanket around the 2nd seat and flip it up side down and into the box. seal it up take it to fedex. about 75 to 100$ to ship . greyhound for roll bars. shrink wrap them and then wrap them in cardboard
