has anybody bought a bumper off of ebay
i need a new rear bumper for my 97 4runner it has the typical rust, since i am just gonna sand it down and paint it anyway i figured why not get a cheap one off of ebay, wondering if anybody else has gone the aftermarket route and how they have held up. also still deciding on what to do with the front end i think i am toying with the idea of painting the 96-98 bumper green getting the performance products front spoiler and getting that the grey color my fender flares are what do you guys think?

Anytime you can get rid of chrome, it's a good thing. My opinion of course. 
I cannot answer the ebay question, but I think the front bumper idea is cool. If you post a pic in the next few hours I could photochop it for you.
