Just bought my first viper, an 05 vert
Wondering before I start my journey if any parts are on short supply and if so how do people cope with this?
Also where is a good source for body kits like spoilers front and rear, possibly side shirts etc???
Thanks in advance

Gen 3 and Gen 4 upper door trim are obsolete and known to break ........
If you need a set I know a guy......
The suspension ,frame ,some body and many motor / drivetrain parts are interchangeable with Gen 4 and Gen 5.

Realistically, Gen-3 is one of the best supported generations between available parts from the aftermarket, salvage, and interchangeability of Gen-4/5 parts in some cases. There are of course certainly "unique to the generation" parts in some cases, but I would not say that there are any unavailable parts that are not obtainable in some form

Thanks so much guys
I just drive 22 hours home with the car and I do truly love it and want to keep it.
I read some horror threads on the gen 1 and 2 about many parts being obsolete and just had to make sure I'm ok with my gen 3
Otherwise I would of tried to flip it rather then keep it
What's the best part source shop viper guys use?
I like rock auto and ebay most times for my other cars
Thanks again !!!
