That's who I looked at for replacements, I know of a small parts store that
deals with them and can pick up dent and dings for 30-65% off. A gent at
work replaced every body panel on his ford truck with dent and dings from
them for a total of about $350.

Looked at Cross Canada and it looks like the place to buy, I just cant
figure out why there is a cutout section on the rocker picture for the 4
door...
