Looking for Abarth Rear Spoiler and Steering Wheel to fit my Fiat 500 Sport.

I found a US dealer selling for USD 500 and USD 750 (with no airbag) respectively.

Any suggestion where I can get a better deal. Thanks :slayer:

:wave: Hi Autostella, welcome to the Fiat Forum. That seems to be quite expensive but if you really want these items the best bet would be to look on ebay. The only problem I can forsee is that not many people want to sell to overseas customers. Have you considered aftermarket spoilers as they might be more easily obtained.

I think that loveshandbags has more experience in this area so when he eventually wakes up this morning I expect him to be able to give you more help than I presently can offer.
 
This supplier is based in Romania.

Hello,

Please use the currency selector on the right side of the web page in
order to display prices in EUR for all the products. The complete
Abarth-Look body kit costs 922 EUR (optional rear wing + 195 EUR), the
side skirts only cost 224 EUR.
Shipping to Ireland for a complete kit costs 125 EUR, for the side
skirts only it costs 70 EUR.

Best regards,

Thank for all the info.

The Black Steering Wheel do look nice but prefer the Abarth version.

Abarth

As for the rear spoiler, really looking for the OEM Abarth one. The copy on normally made of difference material. ^^

Still need more advice on this. Thanks.

I have a re-read your original post and I would agree with the advice that has already been given.

I spend a fews days wth my OH in your country a few moons ago and have a good understanding of the value of your local baht currency. The cost of a 500 appears to be around 1Million baht (£20,589) whilst the Abarth is priced at 2.15M (£44,267) - so you seem to have the same import duties as China & HK. Your Tatler magazine have quoted higher prices but that was going through a 'dealer'...

There's a thread underway at the moment in relation to replacing the steering wheel that might be of interest...https://www.fiatforum.com/500/278718-help-getting-airbag-off.html

The experience of a member from China enquiring about purchasing Abarth items for his brother based in Hong Kong (RHD) like yourself was the following...

The eBay guy seems only accept cash on delivery. I said I can pay full amount via PayPal after I win the bid. We don't call up courier to collect kits from him until money goes into his bank account. This is the best for him, I can't see why he rejects me.

In the above thread there was a suggestion as to how about getting Abarth parts from the UK.

Thank you very much for the clip on steering wheel installation :)

It will be very helpful.

So now I am contacting the company in US for the 2 parts. Will post update soon in case anyone interested in doing the same mod.

Your car looks brillant and the black wheels suit !
Their would be a number of guys on the 500 side who would be very interested in it and here's the thread for getting it up there.

The video that you referred to for changing the wheel is here.

You could contact TMC motorsport that is a trader on the FF to see they would be interested in quoting for the supply of an Abarth steering wheel and an airbag.
