Hmmm... Ford and FPV's stock control is a joke. Work in a panel shop as an assembler had an BF MkII XL ute hit in front and guess what ford can't supply a new front bar facia until the end of june. Just painted the whole side on a bionic BF GT, do you think we could get new stripes? apparently they are ot of stock and have been since Jan. What a disgrace. Their dealer network and spare parts suppliers are f*cking them. In stark contrast, we repaired a Y series II GTS a while ago,one of less than 100 made and needed the stainless steel wire mesh insert in the back bar, ordered 8:00am, in the shop before lunch. Does anyone else see the problem here?

hey hey hey, looks like the part has arrived at the panel beater.....thank christ.....only been waiting since late Jan.

case closed.

case closed only when it's on the car

Fingers crossed it's the correct one

OMFg my heart skipped a beat when I read this, I was going to ring my repairer today at lunch time but my Nanna nap ran over budget and I forgot..

I`ll ring tomo lunch.. 11 weeks I`ve waited for a front bar.. If its the wrong one its Tab`s fault..

good point lads, I good be crowing early here.........will confirm when its ON THE CAR.

I got told " parts arrive friday " when I rang today.. I might see my car for the first time in 3 months end of next week, or early week after.

ok lads, saga is over......all the parts are on the car. thank christ.

now I will start washing it again!

Well, after waiting 40 mins on hold to fpv, I get told: can you get the part number so I can assist you further?? I`m like: Mate, you`re FORD! You`ve got no access to a friggn` database? No sir I`m sorry.. So, I ring the dealership the smash repairer is using, he said they`ve been advised 22 JUNE!!! He didn`t say what f*ckin` year though..

I`m as sour as a cut snake, and everyone is going to hear about it...

Its boolsh!t that a 2 year old car made HERE! has to sit for what will amount to 5 months to get a front bumper!

NEVER again..
