Bumper value? Fj60 Rusty ARB

[joyRidaz]

Hey all, was hoping for your guidance.

Currently I have a custom made minimalist bumper with d rings on my 60. Was always hoping to upgrade.

There's a guy on CL with a rusty ARB bumper that I was thinking of wheeling and dealing for. Currently it's on his 60 that is fairly rusty and for sale for $5k.

What is a fair trade for all parties? Heres some pictures of his beat up ARB vs mine.

Am I crazy? Looks like the drivers side might have taken a good beating.

He also has an OME lift I'm gonna discuss with him.

are you trading him plus cash or just buying his?

I'm trying to orchestrate a trade for my bumper plus some amount of cash, if warranted.

Not sure how much to toss in, given the rough shape. Thoughts?

100-150 would most likely do it.... Lower than that he may not do it.... But start out lower

That bumper is screwed up on the driver's side. I wouldn't pay more than scrap value for it, $50 tops.

That ARB is worthless. Not straight and won't mount on anything but that guys 60 I bet, and has no winch mount. It's just a brush bumper. Yours looks like a better base to build off of. And if he's asking $5k for a rusty 60 he's nuts and probably won't deal.

Thanks guys for the solid advice, and keeping my head on straight.

Looks like I should be patient and keep on hunting/looking.
