Chacing a HZ GTS dash facia, Black and Brand NEW. If its a rare spares new one i need it to be in MINT condition unlike some of them i have seen.
it was from a rare spares suplier and i was told that they are all like it. maybe? maybe not??
I would love to find a NOS one but dont like my chances.
anyhow where can i start looking for a new good condition one?? anyone got one??
also wouldnt mind a new fusebox cover for the HZ gts ute and also a ashtray if possible.
cheers jason |

I thought the rarespares GTS fascia were reproduction, because they don't have the silver/chrome paint around the edge. Maybe they had a whole heap of NOS ones and when they ran out they started producing them.

You'll probably find the last ones made genuine were WB.

Well the one my brother purchased of them was in the GM-H box, so they were not all repro, they may have run out and used the last one as a die and the current ones are reproduction. They had lots years ago and I am sure there are still some out there. I
