Put up a WTB in classified section here - with a hint of where you are located and color...

car-part.com
- there are $85 white, red, green SHO hoods near me, which took two years of waiting for me to find one back in 2004. Sable hood can be used in a pinch, but hood pad may rub the intake, when the motor moves from operation, from different reinforcement used underneath.

The fenders are the same as Mercury Sable 92-95, but you won't find Sables in SHO green. Non-LTS Sable fenders also have a painted pinstripe - that you might remove with careful scraping & sanding on a clearcoat color; sanding a white (non-clearcoat) stripe off thinned the white painted too much that I just tossed a potential fender.

Bumper cover of course is SHO only, check row52.com for pick-n-pulls near you - but even regular Taurus are scarce right now. The bumper is thermoplastic, so a combination of heat, reshape, fiberglass reinforce and fill, etc might get it into shape.

Oxford White is only used 92-93, 94-95 gets a different white tint.

Like NoSlo above, you can search used parts on the search engine of your choice and you will have several locator parts sites. Most of them ask for year, make, model, and what you're looking for. You will also be able to manipulate the results according to price, condition, and distance from your location along with a part condition grade. You can try and find something close and also request more detailed pics to check as best you can from photos on the condition.

You can try and contact Dan Barbush who goes by SV&HOdan on this forum. He posts in the classifieds and wanted to buy sections. He usually has some parts cars he pulls parts from to sell to owners. You can reach out to him and see what he has available.

These are getting hard to find at this age. I have seen many go to the crusher instead of taking up lot space over the last several years. You may find it might be hard to find and you may need to get this stuff shipped. I don't know if you will find everything in the exact color either. This is a problem and I wish you good luck.

I sent Dan a message. What condition and mileage car do you have? If it costs too much (like if you want to paint th e thing) you may be better off buying another whole car.

SHO in good shape w/300-400k miles. U got to love it.:lol:
There are several national parts search engines online. For a small fee they put out a nationwide search.
I got my current front bumper many years ago this way from a flooded out SHO in Texas.
Prices are steep +-$500 plu$ $hipping.
Best of Luck

the SHO hood and the Sable hood are the same except for the liner, so you can use a Sable hood if you can find one of those.

Ok. You can pull from 92-95 for the correct hood. Not sure about what year had which colors but at least you have the years that were the same body parts.

A multicolored car sounds kida fun. 2 colors looks not so great but if you get 4 that might be better.

Hahah, I had the exact same thought. It seems like great minds think alike!

Mike@shosource has several cars from which he can pull parts. I don't know our he'll ship larger like that but I'm fairly certain he has what you need.

I had a gold car with blue doors and hood - in NY state in the early 80's. Everyone would slow down since they thought I was police!
