I was wondering after reading the rules if the bonus only applies to each batch of 6000 miles. that is, you get the same bonus for transferring 18K miles as 20K although it costs the same to transfer 18K as 20K.

Yes. If donor gives 25000 miles to recipient, recipient gets 25,000 miles, all of which count toward lifetime status. Donor gets 6,250 miles, all of which count toward lifetime status. Total cost, $280.

can this be done bidirectionally? or does the 25k apply to giving and receiving?

Not that I am advocating that. Seems expensive to me. I would just let lifetime status come when it comes.
