    Default Trying to track down a V8 part

    Specificially the V8 gear surround. Usually on http://www.the75andztclub.co.uk/ but travelled over here to track one down.

    Im looking to track down one of these now....



    .... as seen in the middle, minus the cow pats obviously.

    I dont smoke in the slightest and dont use the ash tray at all, not even for spare change as I cant get my fat fingers into it. Another reason being, I will have a 260 as my next car, and want to get used to the subtle differences, so i can just jump in and enjoy it in advance.

    Anyone know a part number, or anything for buying these?

    Also, do they come colour matched to dash bits and so on?

    Thank you everyone!

    very rare, best place is to try a breakers, i had the last one from one of the breakers, if its to fit in a normal zt, i wouldn't bother and just stick with what you have and wait until you get a V8 to have the surround, colour choice is mainly the technical finish
