I bought a pair from Porsche about 6 weeks ago. They were in stock in the UK then.

I've just bought one for each side from my local OPC, they ordered them in on next day delivery. Should have been £185 each inc of VAT etc. but I paid £166 ish with discount after mentioning my TIPEC membership. I'll post some photos once there fitted!

It was the near side which became unavailable a year ago, now being manufactured again. The offside has always been available. Still time to move garages...?

I rang Porsche back to check, I'm sure a spoke to the same young guy as the bodyshop did, after explaining the part in detail he came back and confirmed it is still available.
