h1tman/rdc, thanks! I called them and their offer was: they can weld it but can't guarantee for how long it'll stay on. and if they're replacing the whole radiator, they don't offer OEM. weird.

Guys, question, I called a Toyota (parts) office, Toyorama and Celica for the prices. Then I called the Toyota rep again to ask for the part number because I wanted to make sure the quotes of the 2 other suppliers refer to the same item, he didn't want to give it. And his advise was that impossible magkaroon yung ibang supplier outside Toyota. Any offer from a shop other than a Toyota office means it's a fake.

??? Is it not safe to buy from any shop other than Toyota?
