looking for rear bumper 4th gen

[Jan777]

A pick-up crashed into the rear of my T4R Limited V8. The door can be fixed and the light was already replaced. But I need a new rear plastic bumper.

Anyone got one for sale? Also upgrades to alu or steel bumpers welcome! Need shipping to Europe!

PM please!


P.S. The other truck did not get away so light: my trailer hitch went right through his radiator, that truck was immobilized! I continued another 1200 miles on my trip to Vienna.

still looking for the rear bumper!

And a word of warning! There seems to be some fraud operations going on. I received an email from a "Collina Morris, Col Morris <[email protected]>" with the message that the person has exactly the bumper I am looking for. Next was the question how much I am willing to spend and I got the response that the price is exactly my max sum +50USD.

The last email came with a request to send the money by Western Union which offers no buyers protection whatsoever.

Three times I requested pics, but never got any. I got only the message that "all is packed and ready to be shipped".

All of this was decorated with a heart touching story: "I am just back from cancer treatment and feeling bad ... but I will send you the shipment since I promised it. Please send the money now."

When I refused Western Union and offered PAYPAL instead which DOES offer buyers protection and the option to get your money back in case of fraud, I heard nothing more of the person!

So be careful! There are some fraudsters out there!

found no rear bumper so got the old parts fixed

My mechanic offered me to do some plastic welding, take care of the corrosion inside the rear door, fix the dents from the impact, do the entire paint & polish job - and all of it for the price of new OEM replacement parts. Who can say no to such an offer!
On the pics you can see the dent in the rear frame from the impact, the trailer hitch saved me from more serious damage! Its massive, this iron hook!
