7th Gen ('06-'07): Couple Questions

Couple Questions
Well, I own an ‘06 LT, salvage title and a unibody that’s completely shot, whatever, time to be a man and throw ludicrous amounts of money at a car that really isn’t worth much more than scrap
that being said, the drivers side door of my car is bent up top and let’s water in when it rains and I need to replace it, however the junkyard only has 1 06 and the door is completely gutted and bent, will an 00-05 door work instead?
second; I have a couple sets of 00-05 Taillights, I like the look better, so will they fit instead of the 06-07 ones?
thirdly, Where might I be able to find the silver “ground effects” or whatever they’re called that some SS’s had? And what do I need to mount them?
thanks all

If the unibody is shot, I assume rusted out.... Why dump the money? You might be money ahead on a better condition, non-salvaged car.
But.... Yes, the 00-05 doors will fit (you will probably need to change over the wiring harness).
The 00-05 taillights will work, but us your 06-07 tail light wiring.
And as for the ground fx, much of that is disappearing. You can contact your local dealer parts department (but they are probably gone) and you can check ebay and salvage yards. I believe they require cutting slots into the bumper covers and have clips to hold them in.
