80-series valances, and a fender moulding question (1 Viewer)

[MontyAndCruiser]

Hi All,

Making some headway sourcing parts to repair our 94 after it was hit. I have two small questions for today if you don't mind.

1) How many different 80 series valances were there? I know there's two different LC valances (Toyota vs Sombrero grille), but is the LX450 valance a 3rd? Or is it the same as one of the LC parts?

2) This might sound a little crazy, but does anyone have a picture of a white or light colored 80 with oem (same color) flares, but with BLACK flare moulding? Trying to decide if this would look weird or not, and have been unable to find examples.

Thanks in advance!

There are two, the later (Sombrero & LX) grill opening is slightly larger, taller. This is a '96 with a '93 grill, center support and valance in it.

Early grill with the late valance, showing the miss match.

Excellent thanks! I just wasn't sure if the LX valance as same as late LC.
