Not sure, but it looks like the frame fits all models, maybe even petrol/diesel. New one P/N 31406808 is pricey at 1300-1800 EUR.

The bracket P/N 31368100 underneath the radiator is less than 50 EUR.

Yours looks bad. I'd go after a good used one and refurbish it the best I could before installation. Used ones start at 150-250 EUR and don't look bad on the pictures. Esp compared to yours...

Yeah quotes for new were insane here. But yes, a lot of road salt over the winter here. Never seen so many rusty cars! Mines is ok, just that subframe has taken a beating.
