Default G8 Body Swap Info, Where to buy

Ok, I have a problem.
I have a fantastic running G8. But it flew into a ditch in the dark and the front cowl is destroyed, and the body is pretty tore up as well.

I can't find a G8 body anywhere. Even if I could, I am not sure I want to stay with that hard plastic that just shatters when it bumps into something.

I think a G16 body/cowl is an easy job but have trouble finding any threads on it. What about a Drive?

G14-16-19-22 bodies are almost a direct bolt on, plus they are quite flexable in a minor "bump". Their flexability needs "flex agent" added to the paint like used on painted rubber auto door trim when painted, or paint might flake off easily when bumped, as paint isnt usually designed to flex (many here might disagree, but thats the "right way"). A "drive" body would require much more work to fit.
