Did you use metal polish or a rotary tool on the metal parts and plastic polish on the plastic to remove fine scratches?

Are the wheels new or did you refurb the originals?

Thanks,

I was very lucky, the car was almost in mint condition under the dust. I cleaned every part with WD40 and polished the metal parts with water and sand paper (P400/P1200). The front bumper was in this condition. Not 100% mint as you can see a smaller crack near the screw hole.

I still had to buy some parts on Ebay for completing it. I think I had to buy N.I.B parts for about $40.
