As stated.  Looking to build a TA02t and am seeking the bumper.  Located in USA.  Tamico has them but wants 40 euro to ship.

I'm located in Germany and I regularly buy from Tamico. Domestic shipping from Tamico is cheap (Standard EUR4.90, but free for purchases EUR150 and more). Shipping from me to you would be roughly the same if shipped as unregistered and uninsured "parcelette" (direct translation of the phrase used by German Mail). I can check for exact cost, if you're interested?

Just to be sure; depending on which TA02T you want to build and whether it's supposed to be a 100% correct restauration/box stock rebuild or the best possible runner, two different bumpers exist. The Toyota Prerunner and Chevy S10 came with the already existing TA01 "Rally" bumper, whereas later releases came with the dedicated TA02T bumper you mentioned.

Mokei, thank you for the offer.  I hadn't realized there were two different versions used.  I am looking for the later version as I am going to do an F150 Baja.  I would probably want to order two as these appear to be the last readily available on the web.  If you can, please let me know what shipping would come out to, delivery is to Columbus, Ohio 43228.  Thanks again.

I've just checked on the German Mail / DHL Website. Considering that the parts are relatively soft and tough, it should be perfectly OK to send them in a padded envelope.  Up to 500g, uninsured and without tracking, that will be EUR 3.70. Domestic shipping from Tamico to me will be EUR 4.90.  Insurance and tracking are available. I would have to ask the post office for actual prices, but experience with shipping eBay-sales and to TC-members more or less worldwide is that insurance and tracking would be quite expensive and not worth it for two sprues of this value. Still, it's up to you of course. If you should want to have the parts shipped in a box and not a padded envelope, shipping cost will be EUR 15.89. See screenshots below!

Thank you Mokei.  I agree the envelope should be just fine.  PM me how you want to proceed as far as ordering. Do you do PayPal?
