Looking for a front bib and bezel for a '79 - '84 FJ-40.

I was driving down I-10 heading to Lafayette for mother's day when traffic came to a dead stop in front of me. I was braking when someone hit me from behind and forced me into the vehicle in front of me.

Wimberly 4x4 installed this bumper. The holes were way too large for the 1/4 inch bolts (yes, 1/4 inch bolts!) The holes were also very jagged like they were cut with a torch. I couldn't tell any of this because I had never removed the bumper. Needless to say I was a little pissed off at Daniel and the work that he has done to this cruiser.

Here is the truck that I hit. He had very little damage.

Nissan - 1
Land Cruiser - 0

Very sorry to hear bud I'll keep my eyes out for you some replacement parts, I would have imagined what ever you hit took some major damage but very surprised, you must of squared up with that bumper and hitch.
 
Thanks Larry.

My first thought was if the people in the other vehicle were ok. They were just fine. My second thought was that I was glad I had that bumper. Boy was I wrong when I stepped out to get a look at the damage. My bumper rammed me, lol. You mentioned that I must have squared up on that bumper and I would have thought that as well. I hit it on the right side of their truck and just with the driver's side of my truck. You can see a mark right below the plastic on the bumper of the Nissan. I was going like less than 10 mph. This bumper was held on by bubblegum.
 
Wow. That sucks man. Sorry to hear that.

No way! I'm sorry but that is just negligence at a minimum and possibly criminal! Have you contacted Wimberly 4x4 about this?

Thats a great point Daryl what if you were traveling faster :censor: and agree with the torched looking holes. Isaac you spent good money over a Wimberly on both the 78 and this rig I would show them these images and let them find you a new front end on their nickel that kinda work will get you blackballed in this community.
 
I just called Daniel and he wants to see the pictures so I'm sending them to him asap. I'll let y'all know what happens.

Mike hooked me up with a guy that has replacement parts so this will be a pretty cheap fix.

Jude found this 95 locked 80 on Craigslist, he said it looked pretty good needed a few oil leaks fixed and the front axle serviced but over all it had good potential. He also said it looked better in person than what the images reflect. 1995 TOYOTA LANDCRUISER S/W SUV
