Tree meets truck!!

Well, the other night when we were having hurricane force winds and alot of rain, I just happened to look out the window at the right time. I saw my neighbors 40 foot DEAD maple come crashing through the fence and landing right on top of my truckand then rolling down the side of it. If I remember right.........I believe my words were WTF!!! So I went outside to see how much damage was actually done. Luckily, the tree hit my racks first and then rolled on my truck. It ended up getting the hood, drivers fender, corner light, and headlight mounts. Now naturally my neighbor didnt renew their homeowners insurance so I might have to eat the deductable even though she says she will pay......we'll see!!
Anyway I have been looking online at replacement parts and found everything I need to replace the damage parts but the shipping is high. So my question is, does anyone know where I can get oem or capa parts at a good price with little to no shipping cost. Any help would be appreciated.

John

body parts are hard to sell online because of shipping, but if you need a bunch of parts then it maybe worth it. Have to send via trucking on a pallet and shipping tends to be approx $175 to $250 on a pallet depending on size and weight and where it is being shipped to.
