I bought the OEM doorsills for my 97 from Mid America a couple of years ago but don't have the part #. If you have the stock exhaust you may consider getting chrome exhaust tips also. And maybe some new wheels.

Awesome. Thank-you Sir!

EDIT: Just ordered a set through my local dealer in Canada for $45ea. By the time I had them shipped across the border, it wasn't worth it to buy them online. Now to look for a nice silver decal...

We are actually the manufacturer of these and sell them to the Museum..Ecklers..Corvette Central etc. Cyberdine went out of business and we are the GM licensed party now manufacturing the domed 3D style logos. You can purchase them from one of our vendors or you can buy them direct from us.

Look at posts 17 & 20 for a general idea, I started 1/4 " from the rocker panel seam, make sure you prep the area with alcohol or as i used a wax and grease remover.

Good Luck
