Due to a a few requests below is a list of the suppliers I used for my FC project.
I had 12months or less to get the project done from start to finish and aim was to get the car looking new for my grandparents.
I didn't have access to any secret staches of NOS bits so I had to comprimise on reproductions bits or stuff that looked close enough.
