I was wondering if there is a place that i can get a front bumper for my tacoma that is not from toyota but will look the same and be OEM. There has to be a place that like the body shops use that doesnt charge $300 just for the chrome bumper...

 

i got mine aftermarket and in not even 6 months old and the chrome is FULL of surface rust, unless you want a black one where you can simply rattle can over if it get to bad..DO NOT BUY AFTERMARKET CHROME bumpers...

 

well i've got an after market chrome rear bumper that looks OEM and its been on for two years without any rust. I'm just not real sure where it came from because the body shop that put it on is no longer in business.

 

In many cases body shops will put non toyota oem style bumpers on cars they work on and they are much cheaper. However a body shop will sell you one but they will mark it up because they buy it from a wholesaler. There are good deals on the internet where you could probably find them the cheapest, however if you know someone that could get you one from a wholesaler that would be the best. Aftermarket body parts that are CAPA sertified meet or exceed the quality of the original. So if you buy one off the internet try to look for that.

 

Ebay.

 

How about $198 from toyota of dallas (strap22) ?
