Where can I buy factory 1st gen sheet metal?

The autoshop told me I need a front upper tie and right hand headlight backing. He said it should only be about 100-200 bux for the parts then 100-200 to fix while on a framing machine.

I just need to know where I can go to find factory mazda first gen sheet metal parts.

Any help is appreciated, thanks

Mike

Its too hard to get this part off of the car.. the guy at the parts place told me it would be easier just to get a brand new one for 100-200 bux... I just want to get my car together soon so if anyone knows anyone or of a website?

whats damaged is the bar that goes from one fender to the other in the pictures in the post "Can you assess the damage from these pics" I posted the damage in there.
I'll offer anyone 100+ shipping to take that part out of their parts car undamaged with the headlight backing plates.

Why not just cut it your self? you said you have a car to get it from? shipping will also cost a lot on that as it will be an oversize package.

This took just at two hours including the prep to do it.
