Saved this one from the Bone Yard. Starting to restore it its an LSE V6. Any suggestions would be appreciated like; where do I get a trunk wing? can you still purchase replacment sills? how about sound system suggestions, what is the hottest looking tire for the original 17 inch rims? Anything Welcome

Sweet! Congratulations on your find. I'm sure a bunch of folks here are gonna have suggestions for you...
 
Yes I have all the bumpers and all the cosmetics interested in some of the lighting options I see that some guys and gals have
 
Is it just the lighting or does the left side skirt in the 2nd pic look different than the traditional lse side skirts we are most familiar with seeing? May be just my eyes due to the car being black. Forgive me in advance if it is me seeing things. LOL.

no the skirts on both sides look different.. they dont flare out as much at the lse ones did..
 
I dont see side skirts at all it looks stock or they are removed already.
 
I removed the skirts as part of the restoration. The body shop is owned by a friend of mine and hes letting me do a complete tear down. He suggested by removing everything the paint job will be much better when complete.. I will continue to place pictures on this thread as the progress advances.
 
Great!!!!!! Just ordered the spoiler much thanks!!!!!!

5 speed or auto...If its a 5 speed its really really rare...Ive only seen a couple of those ..I actually missed one at the auction because i forgot to pay the deposit and it only sold for $970 and it was actually not wrecked that bad..
 
Stripping Hoods

Preping the hoods for primer and paint. Aircraft stripping to ensuer no damage from heat and greatly reduces sanding time.
