Trying to get the car ready for the summer and realizing I need a few parts.  I'm wondering if anyone has any good suggestions on where I can pick up some of this stuff at fair prices including shipping since I'm not living in a major market area.

These are for my 2007 build Vintage Speedster although some of you may remember Automotive Legends who ultimately sold it to the original owner.

Here's my list of small parts...

Horn Grills

European Taillight Lens (pair) maybe from Sierra Madre Collection?

Wooden Porsche emblem shift knob

Front Bumper Bracket Grommet.  These are flat to the body unlike early VW grommets.

Wiper Arm Caps (1974 style arms with nut) 

Thanks for any help or suggestions...

PS I'm not sure if the new VS still has any of the old parts.

For the knob I would recommend CG Autowood.  Call or email him.  All he needs is thread measurement and he can tell you what he has in stock,  He also custom makes what you want of he does not have it in stock... same price. Great guy.
