Off road finders

in looking for cheaper off-road fiberglass finders that will give my 1st gen a more aggressive look. Any suggestions?

 

Uhh...fenders?

 

I was hoping that would be a post about finding off-road in your area.

 

Yea. Sorry autocorrect did that

 

No. I just need a website or something that sold them for cheaper and not a wallet busting price.

 

Tube

 

I'm confused at how this went from fiberglass fenders...to asking about tube or plate lol.


Anyway. I went with Fiberwerx for mine

 

Me too, oops lol. He also just posted a thread asking about bumpers and I just quoted the wrong one. My bad.

 

Ftfy

 

Haha

 

So many Toyotas in one driveway

 

Fiberwerx isn't cheap though is it?

 

^ I wouldn't assume any aft. mrkt. fiberglass fenders will be inexpensive...

Unless one gets lucky and finds them used.

I sold a never installed Fr/Rr set for $ 500. awhile back.
Mostly 'cause I didn't have the heart
to permanently alter my bed's sheet metal for look.



If I remember ^ those were GlassWorks

 

This thread is confusing lol

are we talking about finders, fenders or tube or plate bumpers. Where am I?

 

Fenders

 

All thee above

 

Let me know when you find a set. I was quoted $1,200 F&R shipped. But I live in Guam so that's like $400 for shipping

 

Haha I had five in there once. Had room for more even lol. Two Tacomas are mine, the other two are my dads lol.

They all run about the same price range. I wouldn't skimp out on buying poor quality ones. You have to put a lot of effort into them fitting right. Would hate to have one fail after all that work. You also need to factor in shipping costs. I was originally going to get the front fenders but figured out it was cheaper in the long run to get the front and back and ship together. Also cheaper to ship to a business by the way.

And like said above, if you get bedsides as well, know that you have to cut up your bed and drill out all the spot welds.



I was originally wanting to go with Glassworks, but they are an absolute royal PITA to deal with lol. Fiberwerx was really nice and even gave me a little TW discount. They also shipped quickly which was impressive since it was peak race season.

 

I didn't have the heart to cut mine up either...so I bought a whole new truck that was already beat up LOL

 

...smart approach

But my sheet metal isn't beat up after 16 yrs of off road abuse...
It has survived every moderate-difficult trail I've ever attempted here in SoCal
as well four trips to the ever popular Moab.
I do believe I've pushed my luck more then a few times...
but always came thru clean

But if my sheet metal were hammered to chit...
new glass skins would likely get installed asap.

But then I'd want to squeeze 35's in them wheel wells.
and that would require SAS'ing it too.
...but my poverty like budget says no
