Default front clip

Ok so most of you know I have a wrecked SC400. It needs a hood, bumper, all lights, and both front quaters, and a radiator support and all accompanying pieces. The engine needs a new intake box but nothing else is damaged. Car amazingly runs, drives, and shifts fine. ( These cars are amazing )
SO. I hear a lot about people getting "front clips" what omes with these and where do you get them from. I know a few members here ( O>L.T offered me a bumper and another member offered a hood ) but because of shipping and time I couldn't get them. Anyone know my best bet on picking up all the associated parts.
I am pretty sure I wont get much at all selilng as is. The engine has 220k on it but y ou would never know.
Comon people give me options. I need some help I really am stuck and don't know what to do. I Love this damn car.

Tracy, what's up man? Glad to see you're still hanging in there. I saw Ted's black bumper this past weekend and it's excellent. He's in Irvine so it's not too far from you in terms of driving. I'd HIGHLY suggest you get that bumper from him if funds permit, honestly you're not gonna find another black bumper ready to go in THAT condition and for THAT price, let alone a local one you can pick up. I've met Ted so you're in good hands. As for the rest of that stuff have you tried to contact aliga?

Good luck dude and let me know if I can help in any way.

-Mike
