I know NAPA can get them in Canada...I've priced them late last year and the guy said they were still available...I need to replace both wheel openings and the lower section where the tail pipe comes out...want to do it this year if possible...

I think most parts stores can, it seems they buy them from somewhere like LMC, tack on 15-20% and resell them.

That is how it was when we looked into fixing our old Explorer anyway.
 
I know I can get repair pannels, but I'm hoping to find a complete R/H side. It's damaged in front of the wheel and has rust starting over the wheel opening. The rest of the box is prety good, may replace the tail gate too. The one an craigs list is damaged on the left side. I gues I could try to put the two together. but that would be a lot of work for the investment.
