Best way to post a carbon bonnet?

[Samy888]

Hi guys,

this is a bit of an odd one i know, but how on earth would you post it. I have one, and am located in northern Ireland also.

I highly doubt bubble wrap and cardboard would do the trick lol

thanks!

Wrap the corners REALLY well with bubble wrap/foam, I'd put some all around the edges too. Put it in a box with strengthened corners and lots and lots of foam - then use a reputable courier with adequate insurance!

Personally, I wouldn't!

aw i just dont know.... i dont want to either as i couldnt trust a courier that much especially with something so fragile. :/

Is there no way you could meet halfway or something because I would personally be very reluctant to post something like that

Kind of limiting your market 😂😂

Might be worth giving it a sort of practice wrap to see how well your able to package it

My experience with posting carbon is that no matter how well you wrap it and secure it, if it gets flexed then it is going to crack.

I used APC when I bought my kevlar bonnet for my old ek 9.

When I bought my mugen bonnet for my ep3 it was sent in a large cardboard which had a wooden frame inside it and to protect all corners and the usual bobble wrap full so that the bonnet doesn't move .... was a lil heavy but it was in perfect condition when it arrived

either way then it isnt going to be cheap to post either! lol

When my carbon bonnet arrived it came on a pallet , corners were protected with foam and bubble wrap then had pieces of wood over the top of the foam/bubble for extra protection.
