Mr Evans we are sailing in the same boat,i have a 2003 model of the same car in sio-port western kenya and my problem has been the front and rear bumper.the only remedy is to put spacers in front and rear to raise it 1.5" above the the ground,see guys at jua kali they know how to put it secondly the vehicle is now common on kenyan roads and you will get any body part from parts venders behind toyota kenya or industrial area go -downs
