Just wondered what the going rate for an ep82 front wing is nowadays?

Been offered a pair, but the price seems higher than expected?

I know it's jdm yo and all that, but I'm surprised!!!!!

If you can get them take them.

Really hard to find a good one never mind a set - I've a few people in need locally with no sign of any available.

They used to be £75 new from Toyota. Would be lucky to get a used one for that here.

£250 for a pair seem fair? I was thinking more sub £200 imo, but I haven't kept much of an eye on the market tbh

Does seem a bit high, would need to be pristine at that money TBF.

Especially when you factor in painting.

You already know, but for anyone else reading always check the backs of these as the corrosion usually starts on the inside first.

He said no rust, but would 100% check them inside and out. He is local so I can go and have a proper look myself.
If they were the right colour and perfect I would consider them at that price.

Can you not just get the irish/uk wings and fill the car indicators

find me some un-rusty ones and i would consider them. i would much prefer them without the holes of course.

ep91 stuff is still ok to get, just hardly and ep8x stuff anymore due :(

Can the wings not be got from Toyota main dealer anymore are from a motor shop?
Haven't tried wings specifically. I'm sure someone like jay has???
Most bits have been discontinued by Toyota main dealers other than service parts.

I had a quick look for aftermarket wings and couldn't find any. Not sure what the fit would be like on after market wings? Would have be as good as genuine I wouldn't have though!?

Yes, discontinued from Toyota :(

Livesports wings were working out approx £600 landed from RHDJapan last I checked. I'm still trying to justify it.

Aftermarket wings are very hit and miss from what I've seen and the likes of Fiske and IDWorks have ceased production too.

Damn, I sold a pair of good wings for like £45 for the pair this time last year.

Crazy money people want!

Purchased second hand pair this time last year for bk up, think payed 80ish deliverd.
to be fair there is a bit of corossion at the bottom on the inside and they have holes in from those stupid bumper rubber band holder things, but perfectly fine for backup.
thats all i am getting them for tbh.

only bonus is the lad isnt far from me so i can actually go and look at them. he didnt seem to want to entertain dropping the price at all. i might have to just go and have a look and then low ball him. its just a shame there isnt any about which is why they are costing a bit more now :(

As others have said they would want to be good for that price mate.
What about sea shipping a pair from Japan to reduce the costs if you’re not desperate for them?

Guessing there the ones Josh Rose has for sale? Prices are stupid crazy we would be better off going halfs on a breaker with a buggered engine the way prices are heading x
 
for a long time now i find myself not wanting to buy car parts at unreasonable prices...it's just a matter of principle.

notwithstanding, i do understand that sometimes an item may be critical and you have to bite the bullet and buy it

I sold 2 excellent doors for 50£ and I've a mint bonnet here I keep turning down stupid low offers for lol, it's not leaving me full stop its needed some point,
Starlet tax has gone mad, I reckon I could get 500 easy for the glowpanel and lights I've been asked that many times
Really fucks me off people asking what price for the car, last I looked there was NO for sale sign
Rant over lol :)
