LF: Several body parts, a feeler thread

So I recently was involved in an accident, and I had posted up the damage in general discussion. I'm interested in how much I could repair it for if I were to get the parts from this forum or other source.

I'm looking for used/aftermarket front bumper, rear bumper, hood, right fender (or both fenders), rear quarter panel (is this the part that includes the rear wheel arch?), and side flares.

Before I go on, I'd like some basic questions answered.

1) When purchasing a painted body part, how difficult is it to remove the paint and repaint it Whitewater Pearl?
2) Is the side flare one piece from the fender to the rear quarter panel?
3) How easy is it to paint CF or fiberglass?
4) Is the rear quarter panel the correct name? Are there aftermarket versions?

My general research has come across this:

Front bumper (FSP) ~ $200
Rear bumper (FSP) ~ $200
Hood (CF or FSO) ~ $400
CF Fender ~ $600 for both sides
OEM rear quarter panel ~ $200 for both sides
Side flare ~ $80 for both sides (ebay seller)

Can anyone confirm/post what they have for sale? I'm in NY so I can pick up anywhere 200 miles of me, otherwise I'd need shipping estimates as well.

I'm not here to answer any questions, but i too was his in the right rear quarter panel and am looking for where to get an OEM 05 panel, the shop told me that it's a part that is welded on so idk how labor intensive this repair is going to have to be. I would also like to know the answer to the ^^ ?'s.

I suppose it would make too much sense to have a question/answer session in the appropriate forum area.
