Default 02 STI-Rotten Subframe-where to get a new one (Austria)

Hi mates,

unfortunately I have to change the rotten subframe of my 02 Bugeye STI. I think this is not too much work, but the biggest question is where to get a new or used one and how to get it send to Austria? Any ideas welcome
Thanks
Chris

Scoobyparts, Jap Performance Parts, and many other breakers should have these in stock mate.
Try looking in the market place section under the suppliers and traders areas

My bug has had a new subframe due to excessive rot. Seen it on the MOT advisory.
