I'm looking to ditch my side steps on my '15 LX. I'm considering just cutting the steps, but I'm also seriously considering ordering LC rocker trim and just making it nice and clean and my inner hoarder kinda wants to stick the side steps in storage. My question is, just how far off is Blizzard pearl from my LXs Starfire pearl? Noticeably different, or pretty close? Sliders are planned in the future.
 
Blizzard Pearl is more of an off-white than Starfire Pearl. We have SP on our GX460 and BP on the LC and it's definitely noticeable, the BP will appear more yellow or cream against the SP which will have more of a blue hue to it when contrasted against BP. In other words it won't be a good match IMHO. I'm happy to take a pic of the two next to one another in the morning if you like.
 
Are these the trim pieces for an LX570 to LC200 rocker conversion: 75850-60040 and 75860-60040?

Those look like the part numbers. There's a couple letters/numbers at the end for the different colors.

My local (Canadian) toyota dealer can't get them in for me, and hilariously it seems the cheapest way to get them factoring in parts cost and shipping is to order them out of Dubai

I concur. If you are ordering them from Partsouq (or if I am), Maybe we can split shipping... I live in AB, but I'll be back to BC frequently if Horgan doesn't void my charter rights. Where in BC are you? Western Canadian group-buy from Partsouq?

Yeah Partsouq. Im on Vancouver Island, so that complicates logistics a bit. Currently it would be about $750 cdn shipped for both, but tgats one from Dubai and one from Japan. If I wait until both are in stock in Dubai (same part is cheaper from there then Japan it seems), it'll be more like $650
 
That would be awesome, thanks! Thinking getting the trim painted before installing would be the way to go if I go the LC route

Side by side shots. It's fairly evident that Toyota Blizzard Pearl has more of a yellow hue, almost cream like while Lexus Starfire Pearl has more of a blue/purple hue that is lighter in color as if it's almost over exposed in comparison. I like both for different reasons but you can plainly see that the two wouldn't match very well if laid up against one another. I would suggest painting to match unfortunately.
