Urgent - 3g facelift bootlid wanted

This is for my 3g that's currently in the bodyshop.
I dropped in a good condition pre-face bootlid but... they're different! Not just around the lights, but they have a different shape over the top (pre-face is flatter) and where the lock attaches is different.

Urgently need a good condition facelift bootlid. Doesn't matter if it has a spoiler or not, colour unimportant.

HELP!

I'm travelling up to Sheffield on Saturday and travelling back on Monday, so gives me some options for collecting around the country...

The whole rear slam panel is different to. Bumper lights and bootlid are all different and not interchangeable without the slam panel.

Although that last guy is a rip-off merchant

Ta Nafe, but yes;
First one is the one that Phil and I got loads of bits off in Leicester.
The bootlid was damaged unfortunately plus the car is long gone now.

Second one is miles away

Also Phil has previously spoken to the guy and he's a plum/not helpful about taking parts off etc.

That's my absolute last resort/desperation (I'm not risking posting a bootlid ever again!).

Third one tbh I thought was a pre-face, but it obviously isn't

I tried him yonks ago for some other parts though and he said the car was long gone. I suppose he's worth a try though...
EDIT: Yep he says he has the bootlid. Wants £80, which is a bit much IMO. Hopefully getting some pics across... So we'll see...

Might have found one in Accrington for £50

And just think, if I picked this up at the same time I'm up in Sheffield, how many other bits I could bring back with me!

No, I'm not really considering it.

Honest.

I'm not...

Not at all...

(It would be a damn sight easier than restoring the one sat on my drive...)

Are you travelling via the A1? I'm 7 minutes from the Colsterworth junction and have a rear arch taking up valuable space!!!

Not sure.
As of the last half hour, the Sheffield trip now involves a de-tour via Manchester
