R8 416 Front Subframe

I hope someone can help - this could be the end of the road, literally, for my 1993 416Si!
The MOT a few months back flagged an Advisory for the rusted front subframe, and it was suggested this could be terminal come next year's MOT.
Does any one have any ideas where I might be able get one? Nothing on Ebay currently.

Thanks!

I suggest you send a PM to 961tat on here. Worst case is you get a K series front subframe and have the Honda engine mount transplanted from your old one. 961tat can probably still do this. I've got a couple of NOS K series front-subframes if you can't get one from elsewhere.
