OK. My turn. I want a mint Ferrari F-50 must have less than 10 miles on the clock and must be less than $100.00. Will also consider a free one depending on condition. Who's next?

I was speaking to Roger last week, and I think he said they were now available again.
If mem servers, they were not as expensive new from porsche as you would think. $1600 ea ???
There is also big savings on shipping by buying new from Porsche. You can have them shipped to you local dealer.
Cheers,
Michael

If it need to go into the paint booth asap, you may need to adjust your dreams a bit. There's quite a bit of work fitting those to a GTS, more to a non-GTS. I think there are a few picture essays that show the process of putting these on. It's not a DIY project unless you have some good body shop skills already. The old panels need to be un-welded and un-adhesived to get them off without bending the support metal and the door frame. There'sa lot of cleanup needed before the new parts can get close to the car for a trial fit-up. New part is then fitted so the door fits perfectly, the rear quarter window fits perfectly, and the rear bumper fits with it perfectly. Then it gets tacked and then stitched into place. Then the fun part-- getting the panels straight enough to paint with a perfect reflection. I've spent weeks of spare time straightening panels with the block to get them perfect for black. If your body shop says they can slap them on in an afternoon, they are gods or they are lying.
Good luck with your quest!

I never said the panels were going on in a day. Also, maybe I should have said body shop instead of paint booth. Either way, I can't progress until I have the panels in hand.
