In order of rarity:

1. Sides (only available in Japan AFAIK)
2. Rear
3. Front

None of the above are in active production so your best bet is to search eBay, AutoTrader, Craigslist, etc. for VX's for sale with the plates and then make the seller an offer. That's how I got my front plate.

I would also like to note that those are NOT skid plates. They are fiberglass, and thus have no structural value. They are purely cosmetic, so calling them skidplates is probably misleading.

Well, was hoping to start up on making these again, but ran into a SNAFO. I have no 220 pwr drop to the work shop in my new digs for compressor. Am trying to talk landlord into doing this but he is a worst procrastinator then me. That and it was 104 in there yesterday.

I "might" have a front plate (in silver) available soon. Moving soon and I need to clear out the garage. I know it's in there, just need to see what condition it's in (didn't really use it much at all so its probably like brand new). I don't recall what I paid for it way back when and not sure what to charge, but I will cross that bridge if and when I decide to sell it.

Are you all talking about... like these???

http://homepage3.nifty.com/vehi/shopping15/shopping15.htm

I have all 4, proton yellow, never installed yet.. but will be after all the cladding is sprayed LineX. I bought them ions ago and just been in storage until the day I painted the vx.


and when you're at the bottom of the page, click next ...

I'd like to have the CF taillight covers :drool:

but I've never been able to get a response from them ever since. I guess they are out of business now???

I found my plate and remounted it after a long and hearty detail job last weekend. It is in good shape, very minor nicks and scratches. I am going to keep it on for a while and see if it grows back on me. If not.... it will hit the marketplace.
