    Now that I have totally rebuilt my engine and it's been running superbly, I would like to switch focus to some aesthetics. The tailgate, which I once accidentally drove over when removed, and rear bumper are pretty chewed up.

    Hopefully it's not off-topic to ask for recommendations on a decent junkyard to replace these parts and how much I should be looking to spend. I am willing to consider VA, WV, MD, PA, and DE.

    There’s 3 places in South Jersey that will let you walk the yard and pull what you need. Not sure if you want to drive that far.

    Dirkes is one. I can’t think of the other two off the top my head right now but if you do a Google search for “pull it yard South Jersey” you should be able to find them.

    BTW, the chances of finding Tacoma parts in a "pick and pull" junkyard are slim and none. Ask me how I know that.

    I actually did find what was left of a Tacoma in a pick and pull in Buffalo, NY a few years ago. As I told my son, "All that was left was the VIN #." Totally stripped bare.
