found this on a US webpage, it's a US TL VRX and the front and rear bar look so ugly.

its an extended ES front bar by the looks of things.. the US design rules equire cars bumpers to be longer then that of australian cars so thats why the bumpers tend to stick out more

As fitted to TW Veradas - the TL Veradas were the same as TL Magnas.

They have regulations for low speed impact absorbtion hence the big bumpers.

No I think they they stopped sending cars to the US before the TW hit here. What I'm saying is that with the TJ / KJ's - the US cars came with 'big bumpers' as per our Veradas. Then with TL / KL, our Veradas stayed with the small Magna bumpers while the US continued to get the big bumper version badged as a Diamante. Then comes TW here and our Veradas go back to the Big Bumper look.

So yeah, I think its an American KL Diamante
