Not if you take into consideration the size, pacakaging materials, insurance etc. not to mention shipping costs have gotten crazy. I shipped a 1/18 scale diecast Corvette and it cost me $28 and that was last year.
FWIW if you have it shipped to your painter it will be less as shipping to commercial addresses is less.

With Ecklers they have in the past offered specials on shipping. Sometimes it includes a percentage off larger items, generally not as big of a percentage. When I ordered my dash and front bumper cover, I was able to take advantage of reduced shipping rates. Maybe a hood is different.
Like Pewter said, if you can have it shipped to a commercial address it can save you not just a little, but maybe quite a lot of money. It may be too late for that now.

They were the only company selling that particular hood. I like Wilcox and their prices are about the same as Eckler's 20% off prices on these items so I will look for the parts there. Just have to go with another style hood.
JNB, that was the truck freight rate. Or I could freight it to a business address for $20 less.
