sometimes you can get 2nd hand ones for about 50-60 bucks privately, simply because at the time people are after a specific colour.
wreckers usually charge $200+ for a boot lid but in most cases have the colour you want.

where are u located?

Why does its colour matter? I doubt it would be in perfect condition from the wreckers so its going to need to be sprayed anyway won't it?

you can actually get good condition boot lids from wreckers, so doesn't always need a spray.
