Euro Bits, Coleman Machining

Okay, so let's start discussing what euro-only bits exist (please).  
I'm interested in parts for an '85 4ksq and an ''88 5kcstq in 
particular.

I already have eurolites for both, and those are domesticated 
already, so to speak.

I know there are euro bumpers, but what else?

Thanks,

Ken
