I'm just trying to give you my best opinion on this. but I'm almost 100% sure the Monte Carlo doors do not follow with the regal body lines (the cutlasses do though). And the technical term for the piece you describe is "air dam". gbodyparts.com, kirbanperformance.com have
'em.

Monte doors have different body lines- but they would probably bolt up and be functional but look kinda goofy.
Cutlass doors are the same as Regal doors, and for some reason the people that have good doors seem to think they are worth a lot of money.
the Monte door panels might fit, but they won't match the rest of the interior.

The doors from an Olds Cutlass Supreme are the only doors that will interchange with the Regal doors.

Just remember that some of those Oldsmobile and Buick doors have chrome trim on the bottom of the door or a chrome strip along the center of the door, which means that there are small mounts along the bottom of the door that you will need to grind/twist off and do minor metal finishing to, and there are holes drilled in the center of the door for mounting the chrome strip that will need to be welded and metal-finished. Not a big deal, I just put a Cutlass door on my GN but having to do that extra stuff did require some extra time.

I have 2 sets of doors. One has an interested party but the primered ones are still available.
