Help with "GT" bumper grills

[TDIfurby]

I have a project fabia that came with the Skoda GT bumper, that uses the original square headlights. The grilles are apparently unique and I am struggling to find them - Seems even Skoda have stopped making them - been on back-order for a long long time

Anyone know of aftermarket items? Perhaps made in CZ? This is the bumper:

If it helps, the official part number is:

FAA410003001

Looks like this:

I'm starting to think that I will never be able to get hold of a set of these grilles.

Dont give up ... try to search in Google ... or elsewhere ... I am not sure but did you try to find it in DEPO auto parts ??? I think that in Czech you can find some of that ...

But you will need probably somebody who can help you ...

I have find some on Milotec web site but these one are for the classic bumper ...

Or somebody is giving there expanded metal on the place of the grilles

NoraEshop - 1675Kc <<< Click on this link I think this is what you try to find<<<<

Thanks Martin - The milotec ones will not be applicable to this bumper as not the normal Skdoa fabia front bumper.

The other link didn't work. I will never give up but I need to sell this car a.s.a.p.

On my PC the link is ok ... try only once again refresh the site ... F5 key ... on keyboard ... then let me know....

[TDIfurby]

Yes, it did work. My fault as it only asked me a security issue when I clicked it. It has no pictures though which is a shame so I can't see if it is the same shape as the ones pictured on the grey fabia above. It seems Skoda aren't making them any time soon either. Can anyone contact SKODA throught that last link and ask if they have FAA410003 in stock?

Can someone nip over to Mlada Boleslav and bang some heads together for me? Tell them to get myy F**KING grilles made I've already paid for! HAHA!

I have now heard that apparently Skoda have stopped making them!

I don't know what to do now!

[Dakie]

yes, that´s right, but don´t stop looking for it I hope you will find them! will you come this year to CZ?

[TDIfurby]

Might come to CZ this year but will not know until late.

Has anyone seen these grills for sale in CZ. Ii have money waiting and can pay by paypal for a set. I am all out of ideas where to look.

[TDIfurby]

Have now tried superskoda.com but they too say it is discontinued. I am going to have to think outside the box on this one. Maybe use something from a hardware store...

HOW MUCH HOW MUCH?! Including shipping to UK? I have paypal and can send as "gift" so no fees paid.

I can also go through P2M, Petr, if you don't trust me.

Remus: Jason (TDIfurby) má o ně eminentní zájem, můžeš nadhodit cenovku? Jinak jak Jason píše, já se s ním znám osobně + pár obchodů již máme za sebou a 100% pozitivní feedback, takže se není čeho bát. Pokud nemáš třeba Paypaly a chceš, tak nabízím pomoc, že to proženeme přes mojí osobu, tzn. vyzvednu a zaplatím hotově od tebe v MB a pošlu mu to přes můj účet.

Dej vědět příp.

Jason: Based on your PM I just offered a help with eventual tranfer and shipping so we´ll se when Remus´s back with info about the price and what´s your standpoint then, ok?

Yes - money waiting! Although I have now sold the white car it is being picked up on Sunday so I would like the grilles before then if possible. If not I shall ship them to the new owner myself. Thanks

[P2M]

Jason, a small misunderstanding has happened - Remus has the complete GT set consisting from the bumber, grills etc. which probably is not what are you looking 4, is it? Anyway if you have a chance to buy this set and then sell the bumber without the grills, the price then would be 5.000 CZK.

[TDIfurby]

Ah! Rats. I only need the grills sadly as shown above the car already has the complete GT bumper fitted, and is just missing the 3 grilles from the lower section of it.

[P2M]

I thought that... So shall I tell to Remus he can sell it to someone else?

[TDIfurby]

Yes, please. The car is being collected on Sunday, so the D.I.Y grills I have done now will have to do.
