Front Bumper Cover/ Re enforcement

[Crashmachine]

I was involved in an accident back in early may and i am in need of a front bumper cover/ re-enforcement assembly. I have been having a hard time finding one or someone who wants to part with theirs. I would rather buy a used assembly before i have to buy new stuff. I'm also looking for the left headlight assembly and turn signal assembly. I have a 1987 wagon so the lights will only work for that year. As for the bumper i really dont know, but if needed ill make it work.

I am located in central illinois and was wondering if anyone knew where there was a wagon in a junk yard in the midwest or if anyone near here would be willing to sell me the bumper assembly. I am willing to drive far to come pick it up. So if you have one but live far away please PM me any ways.

Any info would be great cuz i am desperate to get my wagon back on the road and not looking like a P.O.S.

Thanks

We have a wrecking yard with 6 tercel4wd here with what you need. It would likely cost about $100 just to ship a bumper however from the Seattle area. However, the front bumpers are the same for all the years, and also the same for the 2wd hatchback and sedan too, so look for a front bumper for any '83-86 Tercel. The rear bumpers are different, but the fronts are all the same.

That head light assembly is hard to come by and expensive, sometimes they show up on Ebay. You could find the '83-86 seal beam headlights assembly and just switch the one side temporarily (much more common and easier to get the older headlight). Or replace the whole front grill assembly: the side markers, headlights, trim and grill (it will all switch back and forth). I have all that stuff in my garage I will sell you cheap if you want to go that way.

Good luck.

This may not be much help - but last year someone was selling a front cover in IL via eBay. As I recall, he may have been a salvage yard, as he was listing other models/cars covers. You might do an eBay Search for "bumpers" and narrow it down by the state of the seller.
As far as I know, all Gen II Tercels, regardless of body, used the same bumper.

RE Photobucket - go back and copy the third line, which starts with "IMG," then paste that to your post. Then the photos will appear in the original post. Clicking to the "http" gives only a link to Photobucket.

According to the EPC in our "Parts" forum, the covers for the sedans and wagons are the same - #52119A. If they are identical, then why wouldn't they fit, even if the grilles are different?

EDIT:
Again according to the EPC...the reinforcement and shock absorbing components are the same as the Gen II sedans...

ohh by reading his grammer , I thought he looking for a BUMPER or is it just a cover to cover the damage bumper , just in case if he can't find 87 head light there a chance to convert older style headlight and grill , remain the same fender/hood and bumper.Could you check the parts number on BUMPER compare with 4WD and hatchback to see if differ, I have FWD on my driveway, they are hidden differ (at very top of the bumper) ,i don't have camera with me to prove it , my family took cameras for camping without me .

Thank you for all of your insight.

I need the whole front bumper, re-enforcement and all. I priced out a new headlight through toyota and its 142$ my cost, and thats with the bracket too.

I really want to stick my front. I think it looks a little better, but ill keep you in mind if i have to go that route..
