Brand Hawaii shipping guide

Does Fortune Auto ship coilovers to Hawaii?

Yes, Fortune Auto builds and ships custom-valved coilovers direct from Virginia, but a full set is an oversize box that draws a steep remote-area surcharge to Hawaii. GlideOver's mainland warehouse ships that same box for $176, door to door in 2 days, with the custom valving untouched.

How Fortune Auto ships coilovers to Hawaii.

Fortune Auto is a direct-to-consumer coilover maker in Virginia, building custom-valved 500, 510, and Generation 8 kits to your car and driving style. They'll ship a Hawaii order, but a full set near 60 lb goes oversize, and the carrier surcharge for the islands lands on top. Buy through GlideOver: Fortune ships to our mainland warehouse, and we put the set on the wholesale-air lane to Honolulu for $176.

Fortune Auto's Hawaii shipping policy.

Fortune Auto doesn't refuse Hawaii. Each set is custom-built in Virginia and shipped direct, so there's no dealer markup, but there's still the carrier oversize and remote-area surcharge on a 60 lb box bound for the islands. The thing that makes Fortune worth buying (custom valving, direct factory relationship) is exactly what keeps you from grabbing it off a closer shelf. GlideOver turns the painful Hawaii leg into a normal mainland shipment plus one flat air hop.

How to ship Fortune Auto coilovers to Hawaii with GlideOver.

  1. Get your GlideOver mainland address.

    Free signup, 2 minutes, no card required. You get a real mainland warehouse address and your unique GlideOver code (it looks like HIAB123).

  2. Order your custom-valved coilovers from FortuneAuto.com.

    Run Fortune's custom build wizard as normal. Enter your GlideOver mainland address as the ship-to at checkout. Fortune builds the set to your spec and ships it to our warehouse (build lead time is usually 2 to 4 weeks).

  3. Add tracking when Fortune releases your build.

    Paste the carrier tracking number into GlideOver. We match the inbound box the moment FedEx drops it on our dock.

  4. We scan, photograph, and ship to Hawaii in 2 days.

    Your custom-valved Fortune set is scanned, photographed, and live in your dashboard the same day it arrives. Review the photos, set declared value, and authorize the outbound. We hand it to the air lane on the next cutoff and your coilovers land at your Hawaii door in 2 days for $176.

Questions we hear a lot.

Does Fortune Auto's build warranty still apply if I ship through GlideOver?

Yes. The Fortune Auto warranty is on the product, not the shipping route. GlideOver is a forwarder. We don't open boxes and we don't modify the product, we just re-ship it.

What if my custom valving spec comes back wrong? Can I return via GlideOver?

Returns through GlideOver are possible but add a leg of shipping. Work directly with Fortune Auto on any warranty or revalving issue. They're responsive and generally handle it without a return ship.

Is Fortune Auto worth it to Hawaii after shipping?

Fortune's custom 510 set is competitively priced against the other coilover brands, and at $176 for the GlideOver Hawaii leg, the custom valving advantage survives the trip without the oversize surcharge eating the value.

How long is the full timeline from order to coilovers in my driveway?

2 to 4 weeks Fortune build lead time, plus a few days ground from Virginia to our warehouse, plus same-day scan and dashboard visibility, plus 2 days air to Hawaii once you authorize the outbound. Roughly 3 to 5 weeks from order to install.
