Dealer is your best bet. You won't get screwed by some internet company, pay for shipping, blah,blah,etc.
I got a brand new chrome rear bumper with step gaurs, brackets and all for 180.
C-YA!!

I've also had good luck with local 'bumper exchange' type places. You bring in your old stuff and they swap it out for ones they've rechromed. Look in your yellow pages or try calling some body shop suppliers to see who they use.

go to the bodyshop and sak them... a lot of bodyshops use the replica replacement parts by aftermarket companies, they are OE, but then are cheap enough to make up for that... remember they meet oem quality for saftey standards

Thanx guys... I should mention I live in Hawaii (on an outer island) and we don't exactly have good yards or swap shops. I suppose the best thing to do is go to a body shop and pick their brains...

Bought my front at a junk yard for $50 (talked down from $75). I got my rear used on ebay in great condition for $350 shiped but that was for the 3 piece 4runner bumper so that was a bit steep. I also got a black rear bumper for my 89 at a junkyard in great condition for $50.

Yea your best bet is to look local. I was looking for some new exterior pieces as well on the internet but the shipping prices were really steep. So I'd ask a local body shop or find a good junk yard.
