I don't know if anyone has bookmarks linked or has better search skills than I do.Toyota* warrants that it will either provide a replacement part or repair any Toyota part or accessory that is defective in material or workmanship. If I could source an OEM part at a junkyard, I'd consider that option - although I'd be concerned with broken tabs and damage I'd have to fix anyway.Īny thoughts from the brain trust here? I did a quick T4R search and didn't find a ton of info. If I was confident they were quality replacements, I'd just go with a replacement. I've seen some aftermarket ones for about $100 shipped. Here are the tab locations:ĭebating if it is worthwhile to try and fix or source a new valence. I'm looking for better solutions if anyone has any. I'm debating trying to plastic weld with either a metal support screen or some other structural element. Mounting tabs attaching the top part of the valence to the metal face bar have broken out and I don't have a solution identified I feel confident with yet. I think those will be fairly easy to fix with epoxy. Some right behind the front license plate area. My concern buying a used bumper would be all the prep required to repaint and difficulty finding a 1999-2002 bumper in good condition. My concern about re-welding the bracket on to face bar are that it could be out of alignment and cause fitment issues. Trying to determine if it is more economical to re-weld the support bracket to the face bar or just get a new face bar, strip it down and repaint. Debating whether to buy a new face bar and paint it black since I was already planning on respraying my existing face bar. Spot welds on one of the mounting brackets popped. I was going to bedliner the plastic valences to match my bedlinered fender flares. It's taken quite a bit of rock damage over the years and paint is pretty chipped. My plan was to repaint the metal face bar. Face bar is body colored, plastics are unpainted and faded. My bumper is currently removed and disassembled into its component parts (upper plastic valence, metal face bar, lower plastic valence). My goal is to keep a stock look, modified to meet the aesthetic of other enhancements to my truck. I didn't know if others have attempted repairs or just picked up new bumpers. My primary issues I am trying to address are with the lower valence and metal bumper face bar. I'm in the process of restoring my neglected 4Runner and going through a number of repairs and addressing deferred maintenance items.
