Wanted: Right front silver wing

Backmarker · 01-04-2009, 11:47 AM

This is turning in to a rough year. Bought my new FJ in September, terminated from my company in November. So wouldn't you know it, while I'm out distributing resumes some yahoo runs me off the road against a chain link fence. The damage is limited, but the silver wing on the right front corner of my bumper is trashed, and the plastic extension around the wheel well is roughed up.

If any of you have this stuff laying around after putting aftermarket goodies on, please let me know as I'd like to feel good about my baby again.

Can't make any promises cause my old bumper is at home and I am not but I put a demello front Bumper on my rig and have the other bumper laying around at home.

I switched bumpers because somebody backed into my front bumper and their insurance wrote me a check that I put towards my new bumper. Can't remember which side they hit but if the left one is crunched in and the right one is good it's yours.

I will have to look, but I "might" have one. I cannot remember if I kept any of the extra parts around after I changed out my bumper. I actually had 2 sets of "wings". One blacked out with the rest of my bumper and there was a silver set left over from Nate's lucrum swap out hanging around here too.

Just remembered that there are pics on the forum from when my bumper was damaged.... looks like you're in luck, my left side is damaged. Just PM me with your address and I'll get in on the way. Depending on how much shipping is I might ask for help covering cost. If it's not too expensive I'll just send it over for free.

You just need the wing right and the should pop right out... I think.

Good Luck with the job hunt!

Thanks to Ranger92 for the bumper wing! This is an awesome community to belong to!

Just before I loct my job I was looking at the great work some members had done making FJ avatars for the Kenwood 8120 and was going to order that. Now it's a matter of feeling good about my ride while I hunt for work.

Thanks to Ranger 92, I'm close to having my FJ back the way it was. All I'm missing yet is the plastic fender flare on the right side.

If you or anyone you know has gone the off-road route with their FJ and put more durable parts on, let me know if you still have the stock piece laying about.

Thanks everybody, and thanks again Ranger92!

Amazing response and hoping someone else may have one out there. I just snapped mine off today while taking the kayak out for a paddle. Did not realize that my front kayak tie down was hooked around the passenger wing and when I went to move the FJ to let another truck on the ramp it caught on something and ripped the passenger side front wing off. Ouch!

Anyone have one available? I'll be glad to pay ya something for your trouble.

Trying to subcribe to this post and could only figure out with a re-post.

I have both passenger/driver wings. I'm probably a long way from you up in Canada. But if you're interested PM me with your info for shipping and you can have them both for $200 dollars.

Just kidding. They're your's for free. All plastic clips included.

Thanks Cogen Man. Just got one this week from rdplemons. He had the pass side one sitting around from replacing his front bumper. All sqaured away.
