Mainland Car Wreckers

I've been searching some mainland wreckers in search for the last piece i need for my car. Its the noseplate for an MA61.
I've tried:
Toyoto (Vic)
Paradise Toyota Wreckers (SA)
Toyospares (Vic)
Just Jap (SA)
But they had nothing. I rang Toyrolla, they had one but it had a little bit of damage on it and were asking $150. So now before i waste more money on making interstate phone calls. Do any of you know any wreckers that have the noseplate for an MA61?
Thanks

Yes. There is one at Pick-a-Part Campbellfield. Well it was there around a week and a half ago. Grey and condition is ok. Badge missing though.

Did they say how much they are after for it? I can get it for you if you're desperate. Most probably the weekend or Monday.

Just tried to explain to the guy (who was a weekend worker filling in), what the nose plate was but he didn't really have a clue. And since he didn't have a clue he said anywhere between $30-$60. He didnt have a look for it but said he can remember one. He seemed a little unsure.
If you could get it for me, that'd be great! I'll send a PM your way

Is the noseplate even removable from the Frontbar?

I know you can take the whole front bar off without taking off the noseplate. I don't see why it can't go the other way.

The bit where the badge goes. In between the headlights and the front bar.

Thats what I thought, the apron.
I never knew that was removable.

I saw an MA61 at a Toyota Wrecker in Brisbane about a month ago. You might find one closer to home but if you keep drawing blanks then this might be handy. No idea if it had the piece you are after, I was there looking for ST162 parts and just noticed it as I walked past.
Anyway, the wrecker is Toyota Auto Recyclers, 38 Neon St Sumner Park, Ph (07) 3376 4065. Couldn't hurt to try.
Good luck with your search,
Matt
