I recently had an accident with the Celi frown.gif and I have to replace the front bumper. If things went my way, I would go all out and get the C-ONE kit but unfortunately, money trees don't grow in my backyard. The only other real alternative for me is the TRD bumper.

I called my local dealer, they can't get it. Sent an email to Toyota world on monday, they haven't replied. Looked on ebay, no luck. Google : niet. 6GC : nope...

So I'm turning to you, fellow 6gc-ers to help me determine if this bumper is discontinued, if not where can I find it and for how much. Thank you all! biggrin.gif

Shipping - about 200$ FOR SURE + Value that is writen on the Invoice (lets say 100$ + gift smile.gif ) + 200$ shipping would give me about +20% of VAT fee + about 2.7% of Customs fee

Mold for the bumper would cost about 1000-1200$

One bumper out from the mold would cost about 200$ without counting price to cover the mold

so lets say 200+100$ to cover the mold fees = 300$

1200 / 100 = 12 needed to sell to cover the price of mold...

Anyone up for 12 bumper GB lol ?

Shipping this bumper back to US prob would cost around 150-180$ with Postal AIRMAIL oversize - witch ussualy takes Forever to deliver it...

+ some one find a person who would be willing to let his TRD bumper for around 3-4 month...

Im up for this TRD bumper thing biggrin.gif
