Looking for red replacement door panels, 1977 Chevy

I went to the vendor section and started there, not much luck. I tried three advertisers. Two did not have the panels. One had the panels, but they needed to be painted, and would not accept original trim and hardware.

Where can I go to get really good reproductions, hopefully already with color molded through and through, not just painted on?

Thanks.

Are you aware that the panels were dyed from the factory? Your best bet is to find a good clean pair and strip the old color off. Get the correct color of SEMS dye and shoot all your pieces at one time. It worked great for me...

No, sir, was not aware that they were dyed at the factory...that puts a little different spin on it. We are talking about the same thing, right? The rigid door panels?
