tonneau cover -black plastic panel

I'm having a very hard time finding the black plastic panel on the tonneau cover. Is there a place I can buy a new one? I would even take a very nice used one. I've been looking all winter and everyone wants to sell me the whole metal cover with panel. That's no problem, but shipping is a lot more then I would like to pay (between $70 & $100). By the way, my vert is an '87 # 286. Thanks Rick

Mine is warped from being in the Florida sun to long. Plus there is a little rip around the edge, it looks fixable.

My car is still in storage can't get pic right now. The covers on ebay are the whole piece, I just need the plastic panel. I don't have any problem buying the whole thing but it cost an arm and a leg to ship it back here to Pa.

Recover it and glue it back on the car then put some weight on it

Re: tonneau cover -black plastic panel

I still have that one but I am not sure if I want to just fix it and sell it or fix it and get a few more made so that way whenever people start getting their vert painted they could take their old one off and have a new one sitting there waiting to go on.
