I recently bought a 1999 Japanese spec right hand drive Samurai here in St. Lucia.
Model. Samurai
Chassis No. SJ80-122xxxx
Engine No. G13BA-xxxxxx

I need the front and rear bumpers.
I have tried sourcing it to no avail.
can anyone help me source them or knows another vehicle with the same bumpers.

I also want to know if any one has ever placed the 1995 suzuki samurai bumpers on the 1999 model.

i have uploaded a pic of what a 1999 Japanese spec right hand drive Samurai looks like.

your help will be greatly appreciated.

Welcome to the forum! Are those pics of your actual Samurai? What's wrong with the bumpers?

Welcome to the forum,regarding bumpers is it really worth all the trouble of sourcing hard to find bumpers for your truck,either use and repair the ones that are on it all ready or possibly use something else like say tubing and welding it instead of the bumpers.If it was say a show winning truck then i could understand but a 'work horse' version surely it does not need pristine condition ones that are hard to find.

If it was me i would just keep using it but find some other easier method to make it tidier and comply with possible legal requirements.
