    I don’t believe the rail and apron are separate parts. My guess would be fender apron, the fender itself, core support, and then the plastic fender liner if it was damaged. Also just check to be sure your front body mount isn’t bent (where bolt goes through core support and into frame).

    Ok. Thank you. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing anything. Luckily my hood just has a small bend in the corner but not too bad. But I'll need the whole front bumper and grill and stuff. I started taking it apart today and my apron only has the upper front corner pushed back about an inch, so I'll probably be able to pull it. Especially since they are around 400 bucks.

    Im in the same boat as you guys. My question is how different are some of the 1st gen aprons and can they be swapped out with one that isnt exact. My truck requires :
    Toyota 53701-04141
    Apron Sub-Assy, Front Fender, RH and is a discontinued part
    However there are a couple of aprons that will fit on a certain 1st gen available such as:
    Apron Assembly - Toyota (53701-04121)
    The main difference in the description is being listed as w/abs or without/abs
    My question is how can the difference affect fitment if at all. ????
    thanks guys
    Edit here are links to the 2 different aprons
