Cool ST170 rear skirt replacement

Had a bozo run into the back of my now not so immaculate 2003 ST170. Given that it cracked the rear skirt in a few places, the smash repairer has quoted on supplying a new one (along with all the more normal parts). However, both they and I were told by Ford that there is none of the rear skirts (bumper lower extensions) available in Australia.

A serious amount of web search later, and I'm none the wiser. Anyone know:
- if the skirt was made in Australia (or where) ?
- was it a Venture Industries (Ford plastics plant) item ?
- as the whole body kit the same (ie could I get parts from eg uk, europe or us ?)
- know of somewhere else to try to find the part ?
- whether the SSV http://ssv.com.au/product.php?1356 replicas are made of the same material (theirs is Fibreglass) ?
- whether the SSV fit OK ?
- whether the SSV have held up OK (if you have had one for a while) ?
Cheers, Sunset.
