front end replacement options Options

[3sgtemr2]

i'm a noob to the celica forum and seeking advice. I'm usually lurking on MR2@oc.com. my girlfriends 96 convertible was involved in a hit and run, and we are looking at options to replace the bumper, fenders, and head lights. I've seen alot of st205 parts up for sale in my searching. My question is, will any 6th gen front end bolt right on? or will they require modifications. I'm haveing a hard time finding parts from a convertable and was curious if other models of the 6th gen will work.

sorry for the noob questions. Any feed back is appreciated.

All the USDM front ends will bolt up without any problems. The GT4 front end needs different brackets to accomodate a different crash bar. It requires a different upper bumper support as well.

However, many members have trimmed their USDM crash bar and used bolts instead of the support. So its really a matter of how much work you want to put in.

TRD Bumper fits on just fine

















....Good luck finding one
