Default 93-94 side skirts?

I have a 91 Ls4 and I want to upgrade to the 93-94 side skirts(the molding under the door at the very bottom of the car). Does anybody have them for sale or know where I can pick some up?

Ignore that previous post I made...I was a "bit" drunk...lol Hmmm...does that mean you would have to replace the whole side panel and bumpers if you wanted to get the '93-'94 side skirts on there?? There has to be a way to get it to work out...grrr...

why mess with the Lexus brand side panels if the aftermarket ones that fit perfectly, or almost perfect, is less expensive. i think it was like $400 per side for the Lexus side rocker panels

By aftermarket panels, were you referring to Evolution or Wald kits?? I was considering Lexus parts because I thought I could get them cheaper at a scrapyard due to the fact I can't afford the $1000+ price tags of the aftermarket kits.

im afraid so buddy...but you dont have to buy the whole kit. you can buy like the left or right side skirt, front bumper, or rear....whichever...if you're just looking for the side skirts find one you like and buy that. u dont neccessarily have to get the whole kit.

Default side skirts

thanks for the info. i was thinking about a wald kit before but i thought i might be able to get those 93 side skirts and bolt those on. now that i see it's not a simple bolt on, i'll research the "executive" wald kit some more.

bleh...guess I should start saving up then...might as well get the whole kit since I think it'll look awkward with just wald/evolution side skirts.

If you just get the side skirts, the left and right side of your car will look lower than the front and the back.

Side skirts from Wald or Evolution should run about 750-1000 depending on which kit and who you get it from.
