replacing fenders - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #31958 6 posts Started by JFrost9
ok, well after a hit and run, its come down to me needing a new drivers side fender and some other various parts...i dont know if i should just buy another stock one and pay what it is, or go with some aftermarket sides ( the ones boosted is selling)...

On a side note, im also wondering about bumpers..since i need a new one, should i go ahead and get the 96+ one instead of another 94? This would allow me to get new clear turns which i also need since mine were obliterated.

I appreciate any help, and dont even mind bashings as long as it gets me closer to my decision...

Thanks, Josh.

I know that they are different since you can get clear turns for them but other than that I dont know the difference between the two bumpers. Can someone please post some pics showing the difference?

well here is a picture of a 96 bumper..you can see the spot for fogs, and how the bumper teeth arent as wide.

and here is a picture pf a 94 from the same angle sort of.

I say just get some aftermarket cause they look better anyways. The price of an OEM will cost about the price of a pair of After M.

And if it seems too hard, just get a body kit and the VIS fenders or something nice looking. Then get a new paint job or paint those parts.
If your replacing, go with the 96 and up bumper or get a replacement aftermarket. Fenders there are, lazers, z3, and bullets as well as stock. I recommend member boosted on this site(check the for sale section) or cyberbestbuy.com I have had good experiences with both of them.
Thanks guys, I already talked to boosted and bought the Bullet fenders. Now im deciding on a front bumper, unfortunately the people here who have said they have the 96+ bumpers for sale have not responded...the hard part is finding a low beam, apparently they dont exist.
