Bryson Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 I am looking to buy a doluck front bumper and came across this on ebay and wondering if anyone has bought from this company before and if it would be a good quality bumper and not some cheap nasty rubbish? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Toyota-Supra-1993-1998-D-Style-Body-Kit-Front-Bumper-/260802788450?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item3cb90ebc62#ht_4361wt_907 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supra_si Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 probs same kinda company most buy from, look good but can be a right pain for a paintshop to fit.. you really do take a chance buying soo cheap, i got mine free and the bodyshop hated me for it because it was a royal pain in the tits to fit, nevertheless they managed it fortunately Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't expect much to be honest. As long as you are happy with a bit of work to get it to fit then give it a go. Might need to spend the same again to get it to fit and at least the same again for paint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryson Posted June 18, 2011 Author Share Posted June 18, 2011 yeah thought it was rather cheap but have a friend that has a bodyshop so hopefully he would be able to work his magic on it. Scott M are u from Larkhall, think i have seen your car about before? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazz1 Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 Just make sure it comes with the under tray, the ones without under tray tend to look off balance from side view. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackie Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 The price reflects the quality mate, Leave it. Ive had a rear bumper off ebay and had to get it blended to fit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drift_bear Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 Going to order one online the now but wondering where i will get the lights to fit the front of the doluck bumper from? what lights? the indicators? have you got a facelift or pre-facelift supe?

Bryson Posted June 22, 2011 Author Share Posted June 22, 2011 Ive got prefacelift model with veilside front bumper on at the moment but changing it for the doluck front. Was wondering if the indicators currently on it will fit the doluck bumper or if they need to be changed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 They will fit but they won't look particularly good, if they are pre-facelift. Best idea is to get facelift ones and fit those while you are fitting the bumper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryson Posted June 22, 2011 Author Share Posted June 22, 2011 yeah they are orange pre -facelift so I will be looking for some nice new clear facelift front indicators. Where is best to buy them and roughly how much ? Just need to find myself some nice facelift headlights to finnish the front end as i currently have the horrible yellow headlights. So anyone who knows where i can get a good set from then let us know... Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go for the clear ones though with the chrome indicator bulbs to keep the orange away altogether As for the lights, it's generally easier to refurbish them in facelift style.... http://www.mkivsuprastar.com/Supra/Glass%20Angel%20Eyes/16062009094.jpg http://www.mkivsuprastar.com/Supra/Glass%20Angel%20Eyes/DSCF1905.JPG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryson Posted June 22, 2011 Author Share Posted June 22, 2011 Looks good. Did you facelift your own headlights Scott M? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryson Posted June 22, 2011 Author Share Posted June 22, 2011 Just need to find a wiring loom for the front indicators as I cant see any on ebay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 Looks good. Did you facelift your own headlights Scott M? Yeah, did a few sets now. Brings them up a treat Just need to find a wiring loom for the front indicators as I cant see any on ebay The facelifts only have 1 seperate loom but you can buy 2 of them and wire them in seperately. Best place to get them is probably Keron if he has them in stock. Remember to get 2 or it'll be a pain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 Looking good Getting excited? Now is the time to decide whether you are happy with the pointy nose (some are, some aren't) as it can be fairly easily flattened by a pro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
