Where to get replacement shower door / panels?
I've looked online quite a bit and can't anything. Where would I get something like this, if I wanted to replace this door or panels in this shower? Some parts on the door are getting corroded and ugly so I was hoping to find a drop-in replacement.

Unless you can identify the manufacturer and get new panels from them I would say get new doors, frame and all. There is no "standard" so every manufacturer's frame and hinges are a bit different and usually not easily interchangeable.

Although it's for a different type of shower, the actual aluminum pieces look just like my door, which was corroded worse. I hope you have better luck than I did. My type shower is a molded fiberglass "alcove" unit that is closed on all sides except the front opening. These are apparently now "out of style" and custom door units are outrageous. I watched Craigslist for over a year with no luck and one day I spotted an entire shower on its side in the front yard of an abandoned house. I came back with my truck and disassembled the door/frame and installed it at home. It was filthy but not corroded & cleaned up like new. It's a miracle it wasn't broken because it looked like it had been there many months.
I think the brand is Sterling.

Try a local glass shop that does shower doors. If you take in your door, I would be they can make one up to fit. You may end up with a slightly different style metal but I bet it would look much better than what you have. I was able to buy the metal stock and connectors from my local shop to repair my corroded door.
