I realize there are multiple different eras of body styles with subtle differences for the 200.

Can anyone share which years body parts are compatible with my 2016? Especially the
bumpers - I know my former 13 and current 16 have differences. And I think (but am not sure) there was another minor refresh after my generation?

I just started a new job where I have an hour mostly highway commute three days a week, and I want to revert my 200 back to stock to improve fuel economy. My plan is to strip off all of the heavy armor and put a set of factory bumpers on. With any luck that will get me closer to factory mileage (hopefully 30-50% better than I get now).

Yes, I should probably get a commuter or electric car, but I want to drive my land cruiser. I'll keep the 80 as my trail and weekend rig, and use the 200 as my daily.

You can readily find the info yourself at the Olathe Toyota part center. Their parts diagrams have model year fitment right on the diagrams. For example, the front bumper cover is listed as fitting 2016-2021.

 
Thank you.

To save future searchers the hassle, the front and rear bumper covers fit '16-21.

However, the front bumper cover shows as no longer available (at least on that site).

Online availability may differ as the online store has the ability to turn items off. I could not get a rear glass online but could from local dealer. You should inquire further.
Also post a wanted add in classifieds. Good luck!
 
They will often list parts they don’t want to ship as unavailable. Serra listed radiators like that for a long time, until they figured out how to package them properly.
 
Thanks, guys, good to know. I'll check the classifieds and with my local dealer.
 
the 2015 rear bumper fits the 2016..
 
I don't remember what color your LC is, but you can have my front bumper skin (white) if you can figure out a good way to get it.

Thank you for the generous offer.

I wanted to say thank you again for the generous offer.

As it turns out I am a pack rat and have all of the parts from my front bumper, so it should be easy to reinstall it.

I had to hack up my rear bumper for the Dissent rear, but they're available new, so I should be good there. (fingers crossed)

I'll remove my front to back Budbuilt stainless skids and sliders, and Gamiviti rack, plus whittle down to the stock solo battery config.

I have a set of tundra rims (similar to the heritage ones), that I'll throw some stock sized highway friendly al terrain rubber on and sell the Evo Corse with 34" bfgs.

All in all, I should find myself back to a stock-ish setup and hopefully back to 12-15 mpg.

Despite all then amazing rigs out there, I can't come up with a good rationale to replace the 200.
 
I pulled off my stainless budbuilt skids, removed my rear swingout, and swapped in a set of stock sized street tires and am getting over 16mpg.

The front bumper and winch are coming off next. Maybe the step sliders too. I don't want to give up my gamiviti rack...

It looks absolutely ridiculous with the lift (OME 2724 rear springs) and steel bumpers but tiny stock sized tires, so that's got to change.

I have ads in the classifieds looking for takeoff stock suspension, and a rear bumper. So far no luck. Let me know of you know of any leads or good places to look...

this ia a great thread

i would love to swap 16+ tails + upper hatch on my 2008 to modernize the rear

But I could never confirm if it will work
 
I've heard that some skids actually contribute to mpg due to the aero effects of having a flat underbody. Even with the added weight.

I don't doubt that, but these are 3/16" stainless steel and they weigh several hundred pounds. Removing them made a significant difference alone. They are incredibly heavy, and effective... But not needed on a commuter car.
 
I wonder if 99% of the mileage difference is from the tires?

On my Jeep when I put the factory wheels and tires back on it then gets 5 to 6 mpg better.

I drove 150 miles with just removing the swing-out and saw 2 mpg, removed the skids and saw another 1 mpg, and the tires added three more mpg. Of course, not scientific, but definitely better incrementally. I wonder what if any I will gain from the bumper and winch removal.?
 
Seems like a lot of work..

Interesting to me, I removed the heavy steel front bumper and winch, reinstalled factory bumper and saw my mileage go down 1 mpg. Seems counterintuitive.

Just one day worth of commute via the dash computer. Other changes have shown an immediate positive impact. I'll monitor it and see what happens.
