Hello guys,
I want to buy the following pieces to complete the reproductions for the trunk.

Thank you very much @rsporsche !!!
I was convinced that it was a single folded piece, like the one from E3...

the original was a folded piece, but you need specialized equipment to fold something on a curve. what i did was to laminate a linear piece a few mm below the top - to create a shelf for the top piece to fit into. then it could be glued there as well as taped on the outside to hold it together and hold the curved shape. BTW the best place to shore one of these, when not installed, is on the roof of the coupe as the curve keeps its shape.
 
Very interesting discussion. Being a newbie I can't stop myself to ask about the picture of the parts Alvaro is asking about.

Does the lack of the pictures mean it was not mounted in all E9's or it is barely available in over 50 year's cars due to it was poorly made or too fragile?
