When you get ready to do this pm me and I will buy the door moldings that run along the middle of the doors! Be careful when taking it all off you can sell it on ebay pretty easily. Best way to get the moldings off is to take really heavy fishing line and use it like dental floss to cut it off. All you will need as far as parts are the rear and front bumber off an lx. They do not have side efx.

the moldings that go across the doors are diff. from gt to lx.didnt you notice that the fender moldings are built into the gt fx on the fender? you will have holes to fill on your lower rocker to when you take the fx off.

Yep. The LX ones are different. He will need to put those on with 3m double sided tape.
