I'd actually recommend shipping it in two pieces, it couldn't be more than $40 parcel-post via the USPS then, since it caps at about $20 for a 70-pound package, and two packages would be much less likely to end up 'too large' where you get pounded badly in oversize/overweight penalty-charges.

I only removed the lower part of the rear seats(the one you put your ass on) and it really didn't weight that much. The factory carpets are removed. The spare tire and trunk carpet and things also removed and the the jack and all tools removed.... I only feel more noise but just for my peace of mind I run the car with only $10 (some 4 gallons) of fuel just in case.

I wonder how much the front and rear windows weight? Those sure weight a few pounds.....
