show us the pictures you looked at. i may not be up to date on this fender bay bulge thing, but the last thing that i understood was that sometime during 2007 or early 2006, the fender design changed slightly from the original build FJs...the dimples and crumple area were changed.
original driver's side: (pics taken from this thread, ENGINE BAY BODY RIPS)
Revised driver's side: (notice the extra holes and dimples)

This is not making sense to me. The silver is an early model and the yellow a later version? Are there build date ranges to go along with the photos? Frankly, the extra holes, dimples and raised section on the yellow would do nothing to stop or change a potential bulge or tear in my opinion. Might even make the member weaker. Perhaps I'm missing something here....
