Front Bumper Replacement

Post by Mars »

Does anyone know if the Front bumper of the 2010 Hilux will fit on my 2006 D4D? The one I am talking about is the one where the area surrounding the fog lights is more extended/pronounced?


Thanks

The bumper will fit, it is only the inserts between the bumper and lights which might differ, but I think those were still the same. If they differ you just cut your original bumper and use that as inserts. I think the big change only came with the 2012 facelift.

The bumper will fit. The lights are okay, but the grille is not the same shape as the 2010 grille and there are gaps between the bottom of the grille and the bumper. Abri just had a 2010 bumper fitted to his 2007 and he showed me those gaps yesterday. It's not major, but if you know about them it will bother you.. :think: :think:

I didn't want to start a new thread, but my query is similar to above, so just wanted to find out from those that may know.....

Will my 2005 Hilux Vigo Replacement Bumper (MCC) fit onto my 2006 Fortuner?

Its should. Take the bumper off and pre fit the MCC. You see then if you need to do the bumper cut.
