ok - Joe is right - you dont have to ship them in your robot crate, but you have to make them during the six weeks after the kickoff:
from team update 6:

�� Fabrication of parts during the 6-week period following the Kickoff and at events.
During the six week period following Kickoff
You may fabricate spare parts for replacement purposes of items on your robot as long as they are exact replacements for parts on the robot you shipped to the event.
They must be brought to the event in a completely disassembled state as individual components (no bolt-on assemblies).

so if you want to fix a bug you found after you shipped your bot, you would have to bring raw materials and fabricate the new parts at the event, in the pits - you cant build any parts back at your site after you shipped your bot.
