The spoiler pod is there, i just took it all apart at the moment. nothing wrong with power antenna either. The parts needed are the quater pannels, the rear light, the front guard, front parklight, and the little carbon fibre strip that goes between the bonnet and bumper.
Re the cost of the parts, you can buy a 2nd hand widebody front guard for $175 from all jap, they have a few of them. And the rear quater is $700, 3week wait from japan. im not sure where you got your prices from dude?..and where did you get a group A VIN number to get a price quote also?....And i bought this car not to make money of it scotty, its a dream car and i wanted to strip it down and do all the work, but ive run into some problems, but if i get a finish date from the pannel beater im keeping it. My bro rebuilds a few cars so hes got a fair idea. Thanks for the idea of buying a beater dude, i think i will go with that option.

Yeah seriously just buy a shitbox and drive it around until you can get the group a fixed properly.
Also I would be a bit sus on this panel beater who quoted 1400... make sure he plans on properly panel beating the car as for this price I think you'll find they will just roughly beat the panels back into shape and use a shitload of hi-fill to make the car look undamaged.
Personally I would buy a widebody rear cut because you'll probably find the rear cut will be as cheap as the two quarters.
If you want I'll go you halves in a rear cut if one is available in Australia as I want to get all the boot trim and wouldn't mind a spare fuel pump, diff and all the other back half spares that most people don't have.
