Default Need help with sourcing parts

Hello all,
I stumbled across this website and forum of like-minded folks who love the hidden gem that the Crossfire is. I had seen the cars on the road for several years and then was kidding a young owner about 7 years ago about having a Mercedes logo on the front of his car. Didn't know at the time that the mechanicals and interior were all Mercedes.

I finally rid myself of my rental housing units that I suffered through supporting for almost 30 years and decided to buy a fun, low mileage, convertible for weekend winery visits. I found a nice lower mileage 2005 SRT6 convertible in a nearby state that had been massaged a little by the previous owner who was an engineer. He lowered the suspension, added an aftermarket radio, changed the airbreather setup and claimed the car had around 350 horsepower.

I had it outside over a weekend, packing for a trip when a microburst came out of nowhere and dropped a large branch across the rear of the car. Most of my car was spared by the rollbar on my daughters 2000 Jeep Wrangler that also saved the GMC Yukon on the other side of the Jeep.

Now looking for a trunk lid and whale tail spoiler (thankfully the only damage to the little Crossfire). Does anyone know where to get a replacement spoiler? I have found several trunk lids on eBay but no spoilers and would like to find an aftermarket supplier or the supplier of an original spoiler before I pay a Crysler dealer $1500 for one.

A dealer actually has one in stock? They cost $1500.00 used. I would jump on it. Beautiful car, by the way. Good luck!
