Hi guys,

I hit a curb while parking today and it took of my side skirt. Could anyone be kind enough to give me a link to a place that sells replacemennt body parts? Been looking online and can't find much.

Thanks.

Thanks, I did a search and didn't find anyuthing.

I would really rather buy the part online. It would be much simpler for me since I don't have an Ebay or paypal account.

Thanks Oleg,

It seems as though this part can't be found anywhere online. I've looked at many websites and all they list are bumper and fender parts. Does anyone know if it goes by a different name besides "side Skirt"? I'm getting depressed!

I'm sure Oleg and yamcha can work something out since she needs what he has and he's wanting to seel that same part. Do a little bartering and take a chance.

zomg QUACK! 183 dollars?!??!?! OWWWW! Do you know if you have any junkyards around your area??? Im not sure if you would want to do that but If you locate one with a trix its probably about 10 BILLION dollars less than the new one online. Up to you, but thats just what I would do first. =)

Also the part from Greentree comes already painted. If i manage to find it at a junkyard it most likey will be a different color and then i would have to pay for it to get painted. Now all I have to do is get it attatched properly for like 25 bucks.

yeah, the price is really not too bad at all. I bought the car used and the previous owner had it lowered a few inches so i am always scraping curbs! The car looks good lowered but you have to be carful when parking.

I'm looking for the same part, passenger side, silver 2008. Is the body the same on the 08 as the earlier models?

Thanks

Tried to send a PM but mailbox is full. Do you have the passenger side & is it silver? Is an 04 the same as an 08?
