Unhappy AU Boot Lid "Winter White"

My Au 2 Forte boot started leaking a couple of weeks ago and I noticed a slight rust spot under my boot lid next to spoiler bolts, Ive taken the spoiler off today and the hole where the brake light wires come through was rusted out to approx 2 inches Ive done what I can with silicone etc to patch her and put the spoiler back on for now and was wondering anyone know a good wreckers to try in Melbourne Gippsland area I could get a bootlid from? I dont care if it has spoiler or not.The local wreckers here in Morwell has a siver one for $250 I 'm not sure how much to get it painted. I was hoping to find one somewhere in the right colour which is white, the manual states the colour as "winter white", if anyone could give me a lead with wreckers or internet would be much appreciated.

apparently, as white is a popular colour, it attracts a higher cost : : gets me, but it may end up being cheaper to get the one from your local wreckers. however, a trawl though ebay may produce something. otherwise im sure ferntree gully wreckers (site sponsor) will more then likely be able to help you

I had the same problem took it down to the local panel shop as no wrecker had a straight boot lid with the spoiler hole's I was also quoted 250 if they gat some, panel shop said they can do some fiberglass or bog work and respray for 170.
