I'm sorry to say that's par for the course with Bristol parts. I bought some suspension components which were just bare mild steel! It's even par for the course with some parts of the car when it was first built, or at least it waqs on the 411.

But if you compare Bristol parts prices with say genuine Mercedes parts, Bristol seems very reasonable.

Maybe we should just be thanklful that some of the parts are available in the first place

Does anyone know where you can get the black countersunk screws which are used to secure various bit of trim?
