WTB/WTT Front Bumper for my '95 GT..... Options

[Michelle95celica]

Hey all, I have the Veilside/Shogun Style Bodykit on my car, and I live in Michigan so the front bumper scrapes all the time. I tried to fix it but before I could, I hit a large speedbump and the front bumper isn't fitting right against the fenders on the sides now, like it is too wide for the retaining bolts/metal strip to hold it on and line it up with the body. I took the lower part of the front bumper off, so now it looks like the car has fangs but I want to get a new front bumper that fits like stock. Does anyone want to sell a good black front bumper (GT or GT4 if it will fit a '95 GT) or possibly trade me a stock '95 GT front bumper for my Shogun one? I will need to keep the turn signals though. I would like to do an even trade, since I don't have that much money to work with, no salvage yards here have any 6th Gen Celicas either..... Anyone have one laying around? Even if it isn't black?

The front bumper on mine is unpainted blue coated fiberglass. It needs to be sanded, primed an painted, and it may need new mesh, the previous owner did a crappy job putting the mesh in.

I need this by fall since I may have to drive the car during winter.....

Thanks!

is it a stock GT bumper? My zip code is 49201. Do you have any pictures of it? Also, what would the easiest way to put a bumper back on, since it is held onto the fenders with a metal strip? Do I have to take off the fenders? And lastly, what are you asking? Please let me know, thanks!

its in ok condish i really jsut need to get it out of my room.

it does attached, as all stock bumpers to, via 3 studs which come out from the bumer and into the fender. Inorder to attach the fender does NOT need to be taken off. Simply pull back the wheel well splash gaurds and with a an extention, deep 10mm socket, and a ratchet you should be able to get at the studs and nuts on the fender side. Other then that there are a few bolts which secure the top of the bumper to the raditor support and dont forget the bolts on the bottom which attach the front splash gaurds, if u still have them.

ill c if i can get pix. the bumper is white and has not holes, dents or nicks in it although there is a paint chip on it some where (forgot where) and the paint isnt the greatest condition. Of course ur probably going to repaint n e way in which case the bumer should do fine.

I also have the rubber peices for all 4 head lights which im trying to sale. So if u need those let me know as im selling them as a set.

I think I am going to try to get a GT4 front bumper or a similar custom bumper, I want the GT4 style, but since I am new to Celicas, I don't know who makes it or if it is a custom bumper or a stock GT4 bumper, I found a couple pics of it here, I think it is C-One or VIS Racing, it is called "Zyclone" or something. I wonder if anyone here has that and is willing to sell it?


Oh yeah, I do need the rubber headlight gaskets too, but I need to get new highbeams since mine have the mounting tabs broken on the top and water is getting into them somehow. How much are you willing to sell the gaskets for? Does anyone make a custom lower lip for a stock GT front bumper? If they do I would consider buying your bumper and getting a lip for it, so it matches my Veilside side skirts and rear bumper. My biggest problem is scraping the front though, with my Veilside front bumper I scrape all the time because it sits like an inch and a half, maybe two inches off the ground. So I took the bottom part off, now it looks like the car has fangs, LOL.
