Default Looking for parts.. Not sure where to find them

Ok so the headlights on my car are pretty hazed up and look ugly all together. Ive tried cleaning them and they still look like ****. So im looking to get new ones and want to get the black amber ones. Does anyone know where to get them, if so which brand is the best and how much would they be? Also other one ive seen on many cars is the grill in the front of the car? I cant find that anywhere! And last is the white lip kit that goes around the car? The car is Red so i was thinking either black or white, where could i find this? Thanks guys !

Headlights- Ebay, or some other places. PFYC.com might carry them. The issue with the cheapers ebay ones is that the rubber seal around them likes to peel off of the light if you aren't careful.
If you want to make the stock ones look good, wet sand them with 1000 git until even, then clear, wetsand with 1500 and then polish the heck out of them.

The slp grille, your best bet for that is also ebay.

The white lip kit is the high sport kit, these are VERY hard to find. You either have to buy them for a dealer, or wait for one to show up locally on craiglist or in a junkyard. Sometimes one pops across here but these people are crazy

Well for headlights i found these
00-05 Chevrolet Monte Carlo Crystal Black BLK Headlights LH+RH Lamps Assembly 04 | eBay
Are those any good?

For that grille i found this
SLP Chevy Monte Carlo Grille 2000-2005 Sport Grill SS w/ Red LSX badge logo | eBay
I would like the bowtie in the middle instead of that lsx, but also almost 100$ for this? Holy crap !

As for the body kit i would think junkyards would be where to find it!

It would be more shipping to Canada also, if you think that's too expensive you're trying to mod the wrong car these things aren't cheap for some reason lol
