Bumper Brackets

[NFC]

Those little L-shaped pieces of metal with studs in, found at each end of the front bumper.

Are these the things that Roughtrax want £40+ for? Or am I being misled?

I need a new pair since I broke both getting the bumper off to clean the rad, but £80 seems a bit steep.

(And having got the bumper off, what I mainly see is the aircon rad. If I have to take THAT it off it's NOT going back on.)

When someone parked their Escort in the front of my 4Runner more than 2 years ago the brackets for bumper were 57.72 each +vat from Toyota

We are talking about the 2" x 2" x 1" L-shaped brackets with two 2" studs in each? Please tell me you're talking about a different bumper bracket. I am NOT paying £40 for four square inches of steel and two bolts.

Why not just make up replacements? That is what vices and
lump hammers are for.
