Mind me asking why first?
Der, it's parts and prices right? Sorry I am suspicious by nature Marc.

Not a problem; I need your VIN number so that when I call up the parts interpreter they can see your make and model when discussing the cost of parts.
This way there is no confusion, hopefully. First things first you need to figure out which route you're going to go down and go from there. I'm personally not a fan of the re-shell route as you're going to be left with a car that's worth significantly less in value and it would just annoy me. Has anyone giving you a written quote yet?

Based on a discussion that was had on here a while back about wreckers charging 60% over retail price I have to say A-part is virtually bang on (Plus. GST).
Sourcing the quarter panel new alone is going to take you over the $1,100 mark and is ex-Japan. I think Soksta was sourcing parts from a US dealership a while back and stated material price differences; Perhaps get their details? Please note I am not aware if there are differences between the AU/US models.

Nick you need to get this guy a case/bottle of top shelf something as they have really looked after you.
I understand where you're coming from in saving money but to get new prices as those stated I'd wait/save that little bit longer as it is totally worth it, especially when it comes to items such as airbags/safety systems. Just check if this guy has: - Quoted you ex-GST - Isn't registered for GST. I can safely say there's only a very, very slim chance you'll get those parts new, cheaper within Australia.
