Classifieds here, Craigslist, eBay. Unlimited options but you gotta decide if you want new or used man. Good luck.

^ Pretty much covered it. I would pay special attention to the partout ads in the classifieds. You would likely get all of the parts you need in one shot, and if your lucky/patient, you might even be able to get them in the same color.

Except for all of the holes they drilled in the car to put those ugly skirts on.

I found a rear bumper assembly (cover, lp lights, reverse lights, bumper reinforcement, and brackets) on ebay from a junkyard seller. I paid $75 shipped, I believe. Bought a front bumper cover from one of the parts websites, like partstrain.com, and it was $115 shipped. OE sideskirts, if you're interested, bought from a forum member for $75 shipped. All need paint, but they were all in new condition. I'm sure you can find better deals if you buy off a member here with a part-out going on.
Good luck!

I had them same side skirts on my car when I bought it. They looked pretty cool fiberglassed in, but I love the 2gb style better. You can buy a brand new 6 piece oem side skirt kit from dsmgraveyard.com

Please try again with a more descriptive thread title. A generic thread title like this does not help me when browsing new threads to see if I can offer help or when searching old threads for info to help myself or others.
