I am getting ready to get (Hopefully!!!) the LSE body kit for my 2004 LS and just gonna have a body shop modify the rear valance to go with the current exhaust cutouts. Today, though, I saw a 2005 LS with the LSE appearance package on it for sale. This is news to me as I was not aware that there is an LSE package out there for this model yet. Does anyone know about this and where I could get that package, I would prefer not to have a body shop modify if I can get it without having to.

Lincoln added the LSE appearance kit in 2004 for the LS. It's available for the 2004 and 2005 model years. It's strictly an appearance package. Contact your local dealer for the LSE body kit prices. The kit will come with the LSE front bumper fascia, side skirts, rear valance and small rear lip spoiler.

If I am not mistaking, LS Koncepts have the same LSE OEM body kit that your dealer will sell you, but they sell it for less. So check out those guys, its worth the savings.
