Where to buy crappy tail light guard damage multipliers?

[Miescha]

OK, before the onslaught of attacks begin, I'm not looking to actually buy these . . . mostly b/c I already did way back in '96 when I bought my cruiser.

BUT, one of them was damaged recently by an elderly lady who bumped my truck while I watched in horror. Now her insurance is trying to determine replacement cost and I have no idea. I was planning on removing them anyway, but now I need to find them for purchase just for pricing purposes.

So . . . I'm looking for the most expensive ones I can find

Here is what I've found so far to give you an idea . . .

Without even looking I can bet that Jaos will be insanely expensive...

was your 80 damaged at all?

No - not really. The DS bumperette was scuffed and one of the bolts underneath was sheared off (but I can't say that didn't happen off-road previously). The bumperette was clearly pushed into the quarter panel and scratched the paint. Likewise, the crappy rear light / lens guard was pushed into the paint and scuffed it slightly. The damage from the guard will certainly buff out, but the scratch will not. The other driver's insurance adjuster added time to remove several trim pieces and repaint the quarter panel - blending it up above the fuel door. I plan to just touch up the small scratch and call it a day (after I get my check).

There is also a bracket under the bumperette that was bent, and it is possible the center section of the rear bumper has a very slight dent near where it meets the rear frame rail.

In sum, I could keep driving it right now and do nothing, and nobody but me would know the difference. But the other driver's insurance estimated the cost at around $525 without the cost of the guards - so maybe $700 total. I figure I'll just add that to my new rear bumper and sliders fund and move on.

Now, if my shop finds more 'hidden damage' well, I guess the cost could increase drastically

but I don't anticipate that happening.

Would probably work great - but I don't actually want to buy anything. I just need a retail price for a new set so the other driver's insurance company can pay me for the value.

Thanks though - I appreciate any help!
