Looking for what companies provide aftermarket parts for these 2 kits:

 

Tires

Wheels

Disk Breaks and Calipars

Photo Etch emblems etc.

 

I live in Canada, would prefer to order online.  Thanks so much.

Italia Detail set

Both sets come with the Brakes I believe

Hobby Design and KA Models offer PE/Detail sets for both the California and Italia. The Hobby design set is more readily availble.

 

However, best to order these off shore (Japan or Singapore). There are a couple of EBAY stores and there is also HobbyLink Japan in Japan and Mediamix Hobby in Singapore that carry tons of aftermarket.

I agree. Hobby Design has excellent aftermarket products for these cars, albeit somewhat costly, especially the wheels which often equal the price of the model-car itself.

For Chinese/Taiwanese-based aftermarket parts like Hobby Design, Tuner Model Manufactory, A+ Club or Top Studio I'd recommend ordering them from Hobby Easy (www.hobbyeasy.com). Their prices are better than Japanese online shops and shipping from Hong Kong is much cheaper, too.

These are some of the stuff I found on their web site:
