I stumbled upon a website and it has a query form for all Toyota parts... So, since I had nothing to do, I took 5 minutes to fill out the form... I got the following reply:

Email Address:
rob.steven@vantage-preston.toyota.co.uk

Content:
hi part numbers and prices are as follows
fr bumper 52119-2B905 £160.60
bonnet 53301-20500 £505.22
wing 53801-2B310 £117.21
wing 53802-2B310 £117.21
bulge 76190-20010 £24.89
vent 75033-20030-C0 £63.04
vent 75034-20030-C0 £63.04
vent 76180-20010-C0 £16.54
grille 53111-20750 £81.52
grille 53101-20500 £30.12
grille 53112-20240 £7.14
grille 53113-20180 £7.14

Now... what should I reply him? The price seems a bit expensive, but I guess that's just like every other dealship, prices start off high..

I just want to know your thoughts on the price, and plus since he named out all the part number, I might as well post them here for you guys...

The exchange rate is nearly $2 - 1GBP. Also, rates for shipping are probably high as well. I was fortunate to have access to an APO. Good find!

Looking at those prices some are really good but some are way out - bonnet over £500 - you could get a carbon one for less. Other prices are spot on though,

^ but it's funny, why would a u.s. toyota warehouse hold jdm parts that don't even come stock on US celicas.
unless they were to be shipped back overseas since land properties are cheaper (per unit square) in California than in Japan.
