Keep ur front Crash Bar!, Pops ran ova a deer, Crash Bar saved radiator. Options

[soulshadow]

OK so it wasn't on the Celi, but my Pops ran ova a deer the other day in the Sienna Van. Luckly the crash bar in the front saved the radiator and engine from total damage. The hood and headlight on the other hand wasn't too lucky.

For most of you guys that ditched ur bar for the looks of tat body kit. Hopefully you wont suffer too much damage or none in the near future.

I was offered £130 delivered from a breakers, but the deal I'm now doing is with a celica-club member for £80, + petrol money to meet up and collect. How much are you paying for these parts in the US?

There's this guy in England who imports GT4s, drives them round for a few weeks then breaks them up for parts. Perhaps there is a market for this over there?

My god that's a travesty. Why would he part out perfectly good working GT4's when there are so many people world wide that want one so bad?
There is always a market for GT4 parts here. I would say that you should check with Toyota World here in Houston and see if your guy can undercut the prices on popular parts by enough that even with shipping to NA it would still be cheaper and you could still make a profit. Might have yourself a good little business right here if you tried.

You have to remember though that for our beloved GT4`s are all getting old now.......occasionally another "not so good" GT4 has to give its life to enable our GT4`s to live on.....a worthy sacrifice IMO.

makes sense but I just wish they'd rob ST parts whenever poss. Do any of you get upset by all the GT4 parts we buy up over here? I've always wondered that.

The way I see it is most of the new Toyota parts bought up by you guys are body parts, which we can easily get from breakers over hear. The parts that would cause problems if they were used up becuase 2nd hand doesn't cut it, such as super strut suspension parts, brake parts and the like are not used because they can't be fitted to the STs and GTs.
