I had a request today for fitting panels and a cage for an MX250 kit, an odd request I thought, so I asked why they only required those parts, this was the answer:
For everyone's information these are pre-production panels, the rear will fit the MX5 OK but the front is as the original Datsun 240Z kit and is too long for the MX5, so will require modification. The boot and bonnet are also single thickness GRP, all early production ones were double skinned but now have core matt in them to hold their shape.
Here's a link back to the original tread with pictures of this very kit:
Glad to see postage can be arranged. I'd like to see my postie try to get it through the letterbox. I'm sure she'd try, especially if it had the words 'FRAGILE! DO NOT BEND' written in bold type all over it.
He wants £470 +vat to courier it to me! Need to look into other options..... Anyone use any cheaper couriers? I appreciate its a big bulky item but it does seem exsesive

That should be about the £200 mark. Good advice about Anyvan.com, give it a try.
