Oem headlight lids?

I have a 94 Fd and it came with carbon fiber headlight lids. I hate them. I've been trying to find oem headlight lids in red but I haven't had any luck.
Found a couple links through searching but they didn't work.
Any ideas?

These can be purchased new and any body shop can color match them for you.

Just an FYI-

Do NOT buy used when it comes to headlight covers. Not worth the price of having them painted only to have them develop (if they haven't already) a crack on the mounting point(s) and flying off on the freeway.

I have a new (well, used for 2 weeks and then removed for a carbon one) factory headlight cover I bought from Ray at Malloy in 2012. Its been sitting in my shed for years. It goes on USA passengers side. But it is painted PZ paint code black.

I'm in Australia and I ordered factory headlight covers from Ray at Malloy Mazda just fine.

Don't buy old used covers as stated above. The mount points get weak over time and break. I was doing 80mph one night with the headlights up. The old cover broke its mounts and hurled into the windscreen and skated over the roof and was long gone. The mounts just go at the most random of times.

Ditto, mine too.
I ended up buying the carbon fiber covers.
They're dark enough on my black car that they don't look too bad.

You can just get yours painted. Easiest thing to do I think.
