Title: 2009 GT V6 undertray crunched
Post by: Malcolm on September 01, 2014, 05:07:00 PM
 Oop's undertray is no longer, no doubt the GT should have one, any suggestions?
Hi again, have been quoted around $350 freight for under tray from Alfa Sportiva any suggestions other than forgetting all about replacing it. :-\

You can get a more pricey alloy one from Alfa Stumper, freight is the killer though, there was a thread on this a few years ago, Colin.

Is it the same as the one for the 147GTA? If so the alloy replacements from Alfastumper and others are cheaper than an original plastic one.

One of the European parts dealers has the factory correct item for the GTA, and it comes out at about A$200 more than the alloy tray.

Thanks Guys, seems Alfa Stumper, is the go, AROCA SA member purchased one from them recently for his GT.

I'd be interested to hear how you go with the order. I placed an order with them nearly a week ago, and apart from the automated acknowledgement have heard nothing back, despite a follow-up email a couple of days ago. Not sure whether it's a holiday in Denmark or something...

Have just ordered online so will let you know how we go from here on, challenge is they do not advise the freight cost at time of ordering.

Yes, but they say they'll email a shipping quote and confirmation that they have the items in stock, but haven't done so.

Hi Malcolm -

Yeah, the shipping from continental Europe is horrendous. I bit the bullet and ordered some other parts at the same time to help justify the shipping, but it's still a big hit. Only other thing I can suggest is to keep looking on ebay and on the various forums for someone wrecking a car.

Thanks Tim, just for info have heard nothing from Alfa Stumpa either, perhaps it might be worth trying local Alfa Dealer, they might be able to include a tray into their next order reducing the freight cost to me as the tray would weigh 'Diddly Squat.
