Default crashed my 300, fixable though

Well I went and flew the other day with my extra 300s GP kit. It flew very well and I went to bring it in and so far no problems other than coming in too fast so I make for another pass, still too fast so I go for one more, stupid me, I slowed down too much too early and about 1/4 of a miile from me she went into a death spin and cut some lumber. But to my surprise it only tore off the elevator and dented the wing or shattered is more like it in one spot. Definatly fixable. Thank the good Lord, the engine was TORN off and had wood drove into the head fins. LOL! I actually thought it was funny. The cowl didnt make it but I was wanting a fiberglass one anyway. Where can a feller get one for the GP 40 size kit?
