Need a new wing

Hello all - my Archer II is in Guadeloupe where it's been for over a year getting a huge six-figure avionics upgrade (lots of nice looking shiny gizmos and colourful screens).

When running the wires for the GMU11 and removing the port fuel tank horrible corrosion was found that ate the top of the spar - solution to fix it rather then rebuild the whole wing seems to be to replace the port wing complete - will fly it up to the US to get around import duties, international shipping etc; no issue on the starboard wing.

The serial number of my plane is 28-7690320 the part # is 35630-980 (an old number) or possibly 35630-011 (a newer number)

If anybody knows of one any where, please let me know

I have messaged all of the usual suspects and put a want ad on Barnstormers, thus far no joy.
