Generally we do not break out that particular part in the yards but I did find several yards that have some malibu cars in Iowa.

Go to car-part.com and perhaps you can find someone who has one of those cars in his yard that has those pieces..

Another possibility is getting the parts from another G-body. Many parts were shared between them. You may even find something from another model that fits and which you like better.

Malibu, MonteCarlo, Cutlass, Regal, Grand Prix, LeMans, Bonneville (one or two years it was a Gbody), etc.

Some parts may be common in 2doors and 4doors, others will be specific to the body type.
