Hey everyone. So I see RockAuto mentioned as an online parts distributer so i look em up. turns out they have the valance i need for $20 so i decide to quit putting it off and just get it from them. i go to check out and shipping is $40! how can shipping be twice what the actual item costs? anybody have any better ideas on where to get one? thanks for any help you can offer...

It's a large item, so it'll probably cost more. Have you tried a salvage yard?
 






havent been to any salvage yards about it but i have heard that they would probably want me to buy a whole bumper
 






Last time I was at a salvage yard, they gave me some rear speaker screens for free. It's definately worth a shot. Try car-parts.com, I think that is what I used to find parts at a salvage yard near me.
 






I just threw mine away.. sorry.
 






my buddy has one je just took off. He broke the front 2 tabs though wheeling. Im sure you would rig it up to work fine. he would sell it for shipping costs from 22407 and 5$ of gas to get to the ups place
 






yeah, I have one too I just took off...in good condition...just didn't like the look of it anymore...lemme know if you want it
 






heck yea i want it...boomin, ill look up shipping and see... dunno how to rig it up, ill have to look at mine and see if itll be ok with the missing tabs. con seannery, is yours for a 2nd gen or a first?
 






hey i looked ups shipping up and its like $8.85 for the cheapest one assuming a 5 pound, 50x8x8 inch package. that would be sweet. keep me posted!
 






oh yeah...mine is for a first gen - didn't see that you had a 95...
 






ah, thats cool, thanks for the offer anyway!
 






boomin, your buddy still got it?
