Anyone know the weight of a Motegi Lip Kit?

Post by Lovedoctor » Thu Apr 12, 2012 9:02 pm

Hey folks. After months of umming and awing Ive finally put the kit on Fleabay - my car is off the road while I fix a sticky piston and then my wifes Mazda5 (total s**t by the way - never buy one!!!) failed its MOT on Tuesday so I need money to buy parts and fix it up to make it 'roadworthy' again :x

Thing is - even though I have made it a 'collection only' I have had so much interest further afield and internationally I have opted to parcel up for the winning bidder to allow them to uplift. I am now being asked what the weight of the parcel is (ive not even wrapped it up yet :roll: ) and the dimensions for a courier :? .

Does anyone know offhand - either you have sold a kit/couriered a kit before? Anyone know what the weight might be ? I have included the rear spoiler in the auction so it is 5 pieces. I dont have any sort of weighing facility (Kitchen or bathroom scales), I look at myself in the mirror every now and again and say 'hey sexy' or 'fat ba$tard' depending on my mood :lol:

Cheers :hail:

and half a ferret. they charge extra if you forget the ferret.





your best just taking it off the car and weighing it :) you will need a big box as the front and rear dont bend much. probs about 4-5 kg though? not much.

And a quarter of a stoat! Those stoats are bad buggers! Wasnt thinking of boxing - was thinking more of padding corners with styrofoam stuff from my new washing machine then cellophane wrapping just like they do pallets etc? Bad idea?

Thanks Ratty. Other than the wrapping, dimensions and weight I am having nothing to do with couriers. I have had some far flung requests and cannot be bothered contacting and calculating p&p for each country. This is whay I gave the potential buyers the option for them to investigate costs if they wanted it :D Paisley is just along the road too ;)
