New To Forum - Need General Info / Help on Replacing my 2001 Bumper End

Hello Everyone:

I have been a 4Runner owner since 1996 when I bought my first one. I currently own a 2001 4Runner Limited and I love it. I've never really participated in a 4Runner forum before but I'm here to learn and some day help other users.

I have a specific issue I need help with:

I need to replace both bumper ends on my rear bumper.

(http://www.toyota-4runner.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=48874#)I have a pick-a-part somewhat close by in Ontario, CA and I was going to head over there to see if I could find two ends from a 96-02 model, get them painted (if I'm not lucky and find the same color) and put them on.

Questions:

1. Is there any source online or does anyone here know specifically how to remove and replace the bumper ends on my model. It looks relatively simple but I want to make sure I do it right.

2. If I need it painted can someone recommend someone in my area to do the work.

3. Any sites that are a good information source for maintenance, upgrades and general information on my year / model other than the ones in the sticky.

Thanks in advance for all of the help.

Rick (Upland, CA)
