well working on a similar project since quiet a time.
frist things first, finding professionals is very difficult here, at least you wont find them in automobile industry...
after realizing this i decided that my project will be a complete DIY, hence its taking very long.
you wont find any branded stuff (tools, materials) over her.....
but its doable, and to do it it right, you need a lot of research, learning everything..
