i need to know where i can get new front bumpstops as well as the metal sleeves that slide over the front struts to hold everything in place. If anyone points me in the right direction i'll gladly give points.

I think Energy Suspension or someone makes some aftermarket bumpstops.

I'll save you some time and searching here because i just went through the same thing. I replaced bump stops and all of the upper strut assembly on all four wheels, and the only place you wil find these things is at a junkyard or yes, satan. I ended up ordering from satan, 4 bump stops, 4 spring plate holders, and everything else that slides down the shocks. Altogether cost me about 160. If your just buying bump stops for the front and one other piece i dont see any possible way youll spend more than 100. Dont even bother looking at local parts stores. I tried Advance Auto Parts, Autozone and Napa. Nada. It wouldnt be so much at a junkyard but the amount youll have to pay for labor will cost you more than the parts so for once i actually recomend the dealership. And its nice to have brand new parts too. My shocks/struts feel a lot better

BTW: If you buy the KYB or Monroe "strut mount" package all it is is the bushings and a couple washers..NOT the actual bumpstops or even the plates. Dont be fooled.
