Aside from the price.... CVI list wings as £470 each, and £610 for the front panel! In the early / mid 90s, wings were about £100 each.
NOS ones aren't necessarily more desirable (pretty sure that the new ones are off the same tooling, although allegedly the lower front edge of the new front panels isn't as well formed as that on the older pressings), but they tend to be available for much more sensible money, as in this case. TBH, I'd just use them unless you already have some decent second hand ones, or are prepared to weld up a rusty set, however AFAIK no repair sections for the front wings & panel are available.
Btw, didn't realise that the top tailgate window trim was NLA - pretty sure I'd seen them on the various webshops in the past, however they aren't there now
