Where to get spare parts on the cheap?

Hi guys.

I have a cracked back bumper and am looking to get it replaced. I've got a galaxy blue 86 and Toyota doesn't sell it too cheap. Is there anywhere you may have come across that may be able to supply bumpers?

Also, what intakes do you recommend for the 86?

Kind regards

Well, you could try eBay or find someone that had front end or side damage and are parting out the car. Another option is to find an aftermarket one.

As for the intake. Any high performance drop in filter would work fine.

I would guess a scrap yard..

Unless you are looking at spending a lot for CAI just get K&N drop in filter for much less.

Another option is to take it to a body shop and have it repaired.

Thanks guys. Will hop on over to a panelbeater to check it out. It can probably be repaired...

Will look around for the recommended filters. Much appreciated!

Searches junkyard inventory. Looks like there's a place in PA with 2 blue bumper covers for $249 and $259. Description looks like the condition may not be perfect.

Hi shay I have been looking for a rear spoiler. I found that quite a few of the scrap yards / panel beaters are advertising 86 panels on gum tree. Might be worth a look.
