Default WTB: 98-2000 LS400 body parts

What's going on folks. I'm currently looking for 2.5LS exterior pieces and haven't had any luck. I need:

98-00 front fenders
98-00 hood
98-00 trunk lid

Color doesn't matter and I'll pay whatever for shipping. Still in the hunt for these but coming up short. Thanks in advance

i've only ever seen them come up for sale once in the past 4 years. I know, i bought them. and the guy tried to scam me. (be careful with low-post members parting out cars gents). yards are your best bet.

I will double check with the yard I go to and see what year the few LS' are in there. Just pulled some good parts off of one a few days ago. I'll see if it is what you need and I will let you know. It looked like a 99 but I have to check the VIN to be sure.

I gave up on finding good used body panels for my 2000 LS400 after a year and a half. Finally bought new ones from Sewell. With the CL discount they offer, it didn't make much sense to me to buy used panels using car-part when the yards wanted almost as much as Sewell charges CL members for new OEM parts.

Check them out if you haven't already.

Yeah thanks for the heads up man. I'll have to keep an eye out for that too

That would be much appreciate in a major way man. PM me if you find anything. Ive been actively searching since I bought the car and been coming up short

Do they have pretty good pricing on them? I got kind of scared away when I saw how much those body panels were brand new lol

Sewell is a fantastic sponsor of CL and most of the parts I recently purchased were discounted 39% from the full retail price.

All brand new, genuine OEM parts for perfect fit and perfect finish. I don't think it gets any better than that.

Register with Sewell at sewellparts.com and validate your CL member ID to see the special pricing for forum members.
