You're probably going to have a hard time getting a hold of them right now. Try again next week after Christmas is over.

they aren't dumb... I'm sure that body kit isn't being shipped second day like the majority of the holiday traffic. They have to meet the deadlines of second day air or overnight. Therefore they must pack the trucks as efficient as possible.. Having a giant body kit box takes up the room of about 6 or 7 boxes. Therefore your standard frieght shipped box must wait in line behind everything being shipped priority.

It's not about predicting the problem, it's about being able to keep up with the volume of express packages. They're prioritized over fiberglass ricer lips.

I work for Fedex and the only way to garuantee a package to arrive as quickly as possible is priority overnight - thru - express saver(3days most).

If it was sent Fedex ground there is no definate delivery commitments. i cant speak for fedex freight as i have no experiance with them.

Im not trying to bash on accolade but they are know for slow shipping and being hard to get in contact with, amongst other things.

besides if it was fedexed get your tracking number. pm me with it and i can find out the last place it was touched, and by whom......i love our internal tracking system.

Good luck

Yea, I really didn't see the relevance of what I think he was trying to say either. But whatever.
