Hi Forum

I'm trying to get some new plastic bits for my Monaro. Item 11, and need both sides. Need them new or in mint condition. Any ideas?

Cheers

Darryl

Good luck with that. Its this stuff that's hard and time consuming to source either new or 2nd hand. frown
You've obviously got the UK breakers, ebay UK and AU. Also remember the 04-06 GTO in the US is largely compatible with our Monaro's. Not as many 'handed' parts as you'd think.
Spend enough time bouncing around the net and you will succeed, I've had to before just to get a few silly bits of trim.
I seem to remember they came from an AUS breaker.
If anything more definite comes to mind I'll post it up...

I actually bought two brand new ones from the USA, but my friend there hasn't sent them yet. Plus they're a horrible size to ship. I thought I'd just see if there was a Plan 'B'. Will keep trying!

Could they be made on a 3D printer??

No - the piece is way too large, it's over 1 metre long. Plus to create an STL file of the required accuracy, etc would be extremely difficult.

There's a guy just popped up on Facebook, who has a couple of GTOs he's breaking in Poland. He also has one as his own car.
