How hard are they to get? What kind of price? They would fit a TR, right?
It seems the easiest way to get a nice looking front lip for a TR. Either that or do a favor for a fibreglasser haha.
I'm really starting to regret not getting a 3rd gen.
How hard would it be to make a 3rd gen VR-X lip fit a TR?

Dont Hold me to this but i think i read somewhere that the LHD Diamante lights were focused diffrently to the RHD ones. You could get them of a NZ Diamante because they are RHD
Try the trademe website, its like NZ ebay, they might have some but shipping will still be slow and expensive. If you can find someone willing to go to all the trouble. Theres a guy on ebay who sells JDM parts from NZ, often has parras and chrome handles for sale, maybe PM him on e-bay and see if he can source something? Save on shipping and get the Diamante lights and grille with it.

Thanks guys, I'll look for the Diamante one. Are the headlights attached? Because I'd really like to keep my current headlights/grille. I'm also considering just respraying the current grey plastic lip on my TR so that it's the same colour, it might look a little better at least. Really regretting not getting a 3rd gen.

a 1st gen diamante is basicly the same shape as a magna / verada 2nd gen
a vrx lip WILL NOT FIT, this has been tried and will not work, just wasted a couple hundred dollars and pi*s*d me off is all it done,
from memory the most common parts i see installed from dia to mag is interior mirror, captains seats, cupholder in the centre console, bumper lip, dash clock, tho im sure more would prolly fit thats all i know off before checking overseas make a WTB post on the forums here might get lucky
btw the mirror is hella sexy so if ya found one, see if they got 2 LOL
