Think i could help with all but the clear indicator.

Thing is, the part under the lights will be a large item & could most probably be damadged whilst in transit with Royal Mail (a courier would be silly prices im sure).

If your really stuck, let me know m8 :wink:

Cheers.
Pete :idea:

P.S. These items would be from a silver car (grill is not painted of course)

the metal strip that goes under the lights is only about £15 new from eurocarparts, but its spot welded into place with some small strips of metal. for what it does (as its only cosmetic), you could use self tappiing screws
