Default AU XR6 bonnet

I'm here in Sydney and need to replace my bonnet on my 2002 Xr6 ute. Where do I find one? If anyone can help, I thank you.

Have you tried any wreckers yet? Yellow pages will help locate one close to you.

It doesn't have to be an XR bonnet - any AU1 low series cvar (forte, futura) and every ute AU1 to AU3 all use the same bonnet.

I do know of a guy that has a green one from an AU2 Ute - if you offered him $300, I would say that it's all yours, maybe.

I've got one available, plus I'm planning on going to Sydney this weekend for a bit of a trip down the M7. PM me if you are interested.

There's a Ford spares place in Smithfield as well.

I want to replace mine as well ... I have a pin dent in mine and it is really annoying.
