Where can I find mint condition interior parts?

I bought a 1988 GXL with 48,141 miles on it. I got the car May 7 and I had it for about a week when some old lady felt jealous and hit me in the driver's side door. Anyway, I survived and my car was taken to Town & City motors in Gary,Indiana(the insurance company wanted to total it, but my mom threw a **** fit so they gave us money) it took them over 2 months to fix it and when I got it back there was all kinds of interior damage. First of all on the drivers side near the top of the door frame there is a little hole in the plastic molding. I figured that it was a removable piece because there is a screw there. The guy that "fixed" my car tried to put a little piece of tape over it to hide it. Secondly, in the back behind the drivers seat, the plastic molding is slightly torn up. Most importantly, now the keyhole does not light up and the locks don't work smoothly. Now many of you might think that I am crying over spilt milk, but these problems weren't there before the car went in, but this is my baby and I want it to be perfect.

So, does anyone know where I can get interior molding pieces in mint condition without having to go to the junkyard?

Thank You, and I am looking forward to being apart of your community.

p.s. my car only has 49,199 miles on it and I will be posting pics soon.

Also, if anyone could tell me how much and where I could get that Pan-Speed body kit, It would be very appreciated.

Thank You.

im the same way when it comes to my inside (well the whole car actually but) i have replced numerous things in the interior but i went to junkyards often when a car came in i knew it junkyards dont take too much on interior parts so i ogt alot of them for nothing or a couple bucks ,new parts from dealers or such are expensive ,ive picked from somewhere around thirty cars over the years for this and that if you want my opinion junkyards for most of the stuff but stuff like the radio bezel (example) order it ,Sorry i couldnt tell ya what you wanted to hear ...a place called mso sells stuff cheaper than most they are a dealer into major mail order stuff email me ill get the number for ya if ya want ...but there only a lil cheaper than the dealer....

The dealership, victoriabritish.com (they send a catalog still), copartfinder.com (search for mazda, rx7, 1986-1991, and write down the mazda salvage yard details).
