It's no longer being produced. You'll probably never find one either. If you do, expect to shell out your first-born's college education.

yes the TRD front bumper is discontinued. BUT it can still be purchased from a very very very select few places (bumpers will be made when payed for) Just got to know who to talk to or like me be very lucky.

I bought mine from my local toyota dealer here in houston also with the TRD Spoiler and JDM High & low beams. They seems to have connections with Japan. (dont have my headlights installed yet cause i want to repaint my car white before i put it on) I donno if it was called by another name before but now the dealership is called Champion Toyota. i dont have a number but i can get it if you want.

i have one picture of my front in my profile. and actually if you can get it it'd be cool cause i'd like to see more celicas with it. but again like Akimbo said...it'll cost you...1k. yea it is too expensive for something so simple but i have no regrets buying it. i love it.

several reasons.

1. kandy is nice...but hard to keep up with
2. my uncle painted it...he did a "decent" job...but not good enough. looks good in pictures though.
3. my right fender is dented & chipped from a little accident, someone keyed my car and i have a crack in my side skirt molding (i will replaced my side skirt with stock ones and i will make sure i dont mold it...and my rear will hopefully be replaced with hiros)
4. back to reason number one it is hard to color match custom paint...so.
5. white does get dirty fast. but its easy to clean plus minor scratches wont be seen. (best color in my opinion for easy care next to grey)
6. it'll look good with the new rims im going for, gonna be either advan or volks in bronze. and my current volk gramlights im going to repowdercoat red for daily drive.

Here are links to two Japanese web sites that can get the TRD front bumper and wing for you
thanks to OReO for the links he posted in this thread
click here


TAKAKAIRA

JAPANPARTS

I have been thinking about getting the TRD front bumper too
but they want about $1000 for it. frown.gif but you do get the indicators and mesh,etc and you know it will be a perfect fit.
If you add up the cost of all the parts it takes to get the OEM front bumper(cover and all parts) replaced or to get the GT 4 look (hood and bumper and parts) and having to cut the crash bar to get it to fit, the price the TRD front bumper is not bad at all.
