Rear Bumpers off of diff trucks?

Because I live in the middle of nowhere, and Im on a tight budget with my 94 ext cab 4wd, I was wondering if anyone has taken a rear bumper off a different brand pickup, and used it on their toyota, or if anyone know what will fit, what looks good, etc.

I was thinking s10/sonomas, nissan king cab, mazda b2200?

Thoughts?

Its going to take a few weeks for me to order a cheap oem replacement, and the wrecking yard here might have something.

I took a tube bumper of a Nissan Pathfinder, cut the brackets off, and made some new brackets out of my rear bumper mount brackets. Welded it all together. Now I have a bolt on front bumper that fits in front of stock bumper and valance.
The junkyard is your friend.

I agree on the junkyard. but the only pick n pull near where I live is 3-5 hours away, depending on which one I got to.

The local wrecker stopped letting people go in the yard ....

Its bull. And makes for a very frusterating backyard build.

If I had the land, I would open up a import only wrecking yard.
