Can't disagree with any of VeloceMitch's comments.

4) Wheel bearing was my first thought too.

5) I've always had doubts about these unless you've got a full race, track-only motor that will never run in crappy weather conditions. If it is a road/track car I'd steer clear. Air filters don't look sexy but they do stop crap getting into and damaging your precious engine. Trumpets don't necessarily give anything more than look/noise dependng on your set-up too.

6) I'm sure door cards and definitely seat-covers are on all their web-sites. IIRC the re-trim cover set for each front is about £80 and the rear in the £150 region. Ball park is £310-320 for the original style vinyl full set exc door cards.
