Anyone ever ship a front bumper cover?

I'm in the market for a TC front bumper cover and was wondering if anyone can give me an idea how much it costs to ship one using Greyhound.  I live in Columbus, OH, so if someone on the east coast has one, they probably wouldn't have to ship it more than 500 miles to get it to me. Can anyone give me an idea how much Greyhound charges to ship an item like that?  I'd have a much easier time finding one if I didn't have to limit my search to local options.

Hcor shipped a header panel to me, that's about the same size. It came UPS I believe. You'd have to ask him how much it was. I can't remember, heh.

PS- I live near a junk yard that had a TC a while back. I'll have to go over there and see if it's still there (and if it has the bumper cover). If it's there, you could come get it. I live about an hour from columbus.

 I sure hope that car's still there.  If it is still there, that sure would make this easy.  An hour away isn't bad at all.  Thanks for checking for me.  If that car is gone, I'll hit up Hcor about the shipping he paid sending that header panel to you.  Thanks again man.

I found out that Greyhound would charge $80 to ship a front cover from the east coast to me here in Columbus, OH.  I'm convinced my best bet will be to only look for one locally.
It sounds like you got a pretty good deal.

I am gonna try to get to that junk yard Friday, that's my only day off that they are open. I'll let you know if they still have it (and what they want for it).

Hey thanks man.  Unfortunately, Philly is a pretty good haul for me.  I never make it out that way.  Thanks anyway though.  :D

Welp, the car is gone... All that I found was the hood laying against a tree. They said $75 for the hood, heh.

Thanks for checking that out for me anyway.  It's too bad the car is gone.  I hope they didn't crush it.
