Bodykit weight?

what would be a rough estimate of a bodykit weight for a G35
I'm going to order one.. but I want to know how much the shipping will cost me.. and to know that, I need the weight of the thing..

first I gotta ship it to Canada (I got my price quote.. it's decent), and from Canada to the middle east and this is where it's gonna kill me
if it's gonna cost too much, I might as well have one made...

it's weird to ask I know

but just a general rough estimate

it really depends on the material used if its polyurethane it gonna cost more than the fiber glass because it weights more.

Its not the weight they charge you for its the size of the box. Expect to pay about 150.00 for a full kit.

i'd say even more than $150 USD shipping for the full kit. My shop charges me around $200CND for shipping of a CF hood, i know a hood is heavy, but a full body kit ain't light, and taking into consideration of the size....
Maybe $200-250USD for shipping is my guess.

Its dimensional weight they charge. Height x Width x Length/ 166 (i think 166)

just search for a dimensional weight calcultor


oh, every freight carrier it turns out uses a different formula to divide by. Here is from the DHL site:

If its a large item, best bet is truck freight. Hire a broker to help you with the documents and customs.
