If this thread is in the wrong place sorry.

I am looking for a place (other than a junkyard) that has new fenders, bumpers, bumper skirt/air dams, grilles, badges, etc. for mainly a 1986 LeSabre and a 1987 Lesabre T-type coupe, though also interested in the same for a 1982 Grand Prix and a 1991 Reatta. If anybody knows anyplace online or in the southwestern Michigan area that would have said parts please let me know. Me and some friends have work planned for the summer...

Thanks.

Try Keystone automotive, aftermarket sheet metal and lamp/grilles.

I don't have a source for parts, but where in SW Michigan? My mom and her side of the family all hail from Eau Claire (and family lives all over Berrien County.) I go there every year.

You have done well to keep a car rust free in Michigan. I never could (I live in rust-free Tennessee now.)

I'm seen a lot near Dowagiac... and when I got the car there was some rust on the front doors, but all's been fixed.

I managed to ding up the front quarterpanel commuting this winter, and I'm not really wanting to get a part from a junkyard that I would have to sand/bondo/prime/paint to make it look decent. I don't mind painting, but fixing dents isn't my strong point.

Found a Keystone retailer(?) I think near Grand Rapids, so I'll check that out maybe tomorrow.
