Similar but the one you found is more flat and slanted. As far as the fit goes, it could probably be done with some fairly minor custom work but not sure if it would look right. Good find none the less!! Check out the pics below:

Unfortunately the page won't let me link (or even download) the pic in question for comparison... but hope this helps a bit anyway...

I'd sport it, if it fit... It's a big risk tho, $500 bucks for somethin you'd have to jerry-rig...

... it might be worth the risk as the Lexus ES 300/330 is really the Camary shell ... ie Solara front end ... and probably the rear also ...

Honestly, when I saw it that's the first thought that came to my mind.

.... I suspect if anyone was successful in buying the parts from Toyota, that this group would know .... I was told when I bought my 'Lara, that East coast Florida dealers could order such parts ... that came from a mid-Atlantic Toyota parts guy .... never followed up on it ...

Any Fla guys out there..??
