I've had bad experiences shipping hoods with DHL and UPS, I wouldn't go to either of them with large fragile items.

I usually ship USPS, never tried Greyhound though.

I know I got my bumper from a Honda dealer through UPS. Box was messed up but the bumper was packaged well enough to not be damaged. Sounds like the Greyhound Express is a great service with exceptional pricing. Try that route and report back! Good luck.

I shipped a TSX bumper from FL to CA and seats from FL to OH. No problems to report and the price was reasonable.

Sometimes there is some disorganization at the stations as the employees aren't usually top notch. The guy in CA was being told over the phone that the bumper wasn't there, he had to go to the station and push them to look for it and it was there.
