I actually looked into shipping aspects of the front bumper cover when I parted out my last rx8. I am accustomed to shipping large and unusually shaped car parts including bumper covers, so I was not concerned with it.
Come to find out, the rx8 bumper is a lot larger than an rx7 bumper cover. It's dimensions exceed the UPS, fedex, and USPS size limits. So that leaves you with two options: greyhound bus, or semi truck freight.
Truck freight requires a sturdy box or a wooden crate, and will cost $150-300 depending on origin and destination...plus the cost of the box or crate. This option usually requires the buyer to pick up at the nearest freight terminal in a major city, or have it delivered to a business location (no residential).
Greyhound is a bit less picky and definitely costs less, anywhere from 50 bucks to 150 bucks depending on origin and destination. But it's also a lot more sketchy from what I have read, there is a high risk of delay, loss or damage, and their packaging requirements apparently vary based on the accepting terminal and who is working there at the time. This option also requires the buyer to pick up at the bus station, as they do not do deliveries.
I was lucky in that I was able to sell both of the rx8 bumpers I've had, on a local/personal basis.

Well, that makes sense as to why he won't ship that piece haha. Never mind on that I guess. Hey OP, what about the air dam on the bottom of the bumper? Would you be willing to part that out for 50$ or so plus shipping?

I can't understand why no one has gone to get the bumper. It's worth 300 bucks with the fog lights and lower lip attached. I dont know about you all, but I would drive a couple hours for a $300 come up.
