  • Rear Bumper rusted. Options?

    My KNZ130's chrome rear bumper is looking pretty knackered now.
    Short of spending £400+ odd to replace the 3 sections are there any other options out there?
    Any other models bumpers that will fit?
    Anything considered to tidy her up!
    Cheers

    Could try the guys that are breaking or a tubular rear bumper?

      Hi
      Thanks for the reply.
      It seems most broken surfs are suffering the same rusty bumpers lol.
      I'm getting a quote on electroplating so we'll see..

      Anyone know if other generation or hilux bumpers fit?

        3 options

        Replace - expensive

        Repair - need lots of time (I did this on my old surf pics are around somewhere)

        Remove
        Gone from 4x4 to 1x2

          Don't forget option 4, and IMHO the best. - Replace with painted factory bumpers from a breaker. They never seem to rust.

              Once they start to go rotten from underneath the chrome, they're more trouble than they're worth.

                Thought about this but the corners are too far gone - couple of small holes.
                I like the chrome. Ahhh.
