Hey guys, does anyone know where to get parts for a VT2 HSV GTS as last friday nite some nutjob smashed into the front of mine and did a runner...Roger at monkfish has said a frontend off a 2004-05 monaro will fit. has anyone done this or sourced from a good parts distributer lights, bonnet bumper etc as works told me can't get parts for it.Total Crap i say as if its a GM its still kickin so if anybody has any info or parts i'd be grateful to hear back as at the moment feeling like i've got no arms or legs. Cheers fellas.

Sorry to hear that, that is crap indeed. Much sympathy from a fellow GTS owner.

As for parts, Lindens might have some stuff knocking around? Give them a ring, can't hurt. I know they broke a VX GTS belonging to a forum member in early 2006, they may still have the front end and it may fit. Give it a go, I got a 2nd hand window winder mechanism from them a while back.

Failing that, look into getting the bits from Oz? Would probably cost a fortune but it'd be a shame to graft a Monaro nose onto it, IMHO.

Yeah monaro parts will fit. But the R8 has its own style..
Surely insurance will pay. Duncan has a kit on his, perhaps his old bits are still around?
What got smashed, the bonnet will be the same and guards, probably just the front spoiler you will need... talk to Duncan

If you need any smaller hard to get parts from OZ that monkfish or holmart can't get hold of...send me an email through my profile. I drive a similar car. Not a HSV but it is a VTII with the V8 in it.

Hi

We've got a reasonable stock of body and sundry parts. Email me with a list on TRA@TheLindenGroup.co.uk and I'll see what I can come up with.

Regards, Tim@Linden SV

Thanks for your replies guys you've been more help than our useless parts dept at work they didn't even know the GTS was a GM car!!!!!!!!!! just waiting for tomoro (wed) as waiting for final go ahead from insurance company to proceed. So looking at bonnet, bumper, front panel, lights, fogs etc etc. been looking at a VXR bonnet, reckon they'll do the GTS sum serious eye pulling has any of you guys put one on a VT etc at all? Tim, i'll get parts list and mail it to ya cars not been stripped yet so might be bit of overkill on thier behalf regarding whats DEFO needed.
Cheers fellas.
