Most stockists will only want to sell you a 2m x 1m sheet. Unless you can find a small back street aluminium stockist/fabricator locally.

I'm sure you can buy repair panels for the bottom of Smiley rear doors.

Also, someone on here had several sets of checkerplate panels already cut to shape for sale a while back. Have a quick search :D
