At the Botanical Gardens actually. I see the "Phishtaco"and wanted to let you know I was a phan too. I grew up here and recently moved back to continue my education. Best thing for this economy! Maybe we have crossed paths before. I hung around in OH from about 94-99. If you were around then let me know.phishtaco said:
Thanks, I actually got tapped at a light last year around this time. Rear bumper was dented as well as the front from bumping the car in front of me. So their insurance sent me the check for the body work and I set off to locate the parts. I replaced the front bumpers, brackets, valance, rear bumper, rear bumper corners, and rear bumper brackets as well as all the hardware for everything. The headlights and the grill were done at this time too. I dropped the bumper pieces off at body shop that does paint work for custom builders around here. It cost around $200-250 bucks. I installed everything myself but didn't do the paint. It is a perfect match. I think they did a great paint job. The fit of these aftermarket bumpers are not quite as "Lexus" precise as I would want, but this is my daily driver that takes quite a beating so a mm here and there is not a biggy. I do have to move the holes up in the brackets on the grill side of the panels under the headlights, the 99-02 grill ended up a little higher than the old one. Other than that it was a seamless transition. Check on4runner SMASH said:
