I reckon your find the spoilers somewhere eventually, but the rear window louvre could take some finding! Keep an eye on Ebay... 
These guy's down in Sussex are worth keeping an eye on for spares
www.retrofordinternational.co.uk
They'll send you stuff if your no where near them.
Also Capri Club International (CCI) could be worth a phone call, are you a member of them?
They usually have a selection of mechanical & bodywork spare's.
Tel - 01386 860860.

I've got an Autoplas rear window louvre on my Mk1, yes it is held on by plastic clips that slip under the window rubber. One in each corner and one at the top middle & bottom. I think you'd need to make your own up some how...

Sorry, haven't a clue about the fixings but Kev seems to have sorted you out (thanks Kevin). However, I know one or two people who might just have something suitable ... I'll ask around.

Yep, that's the same as I've got, but in black..!
It should come with a thin rod that goes down the middle of it for fixing to window rubber. The bottom corner's are lockable to prevent it getting stolen....

haha its like the busses u wait for one and two com along at once. looks in better shape the red one however i dunno if i will keep it red as i think it would be to samey but dunno definatly goin to have a bid. found the sort of front spoiler i want got the capri club international catalogue and im goin to order the club spoiler which is based on the zackspeed one.
has anyone ever had any headlight covers like black tinted ones? if so what are ur opinions, also iv seen mk3 grill extensions that cover the head lights giving a dodge charger look about it, do these look any good in the flesh or just a out of place add on?

Matt
In my opinion the Black shades look  problem is they are for show use only you cannot use them at night and you stand the risk of getting a tug from the boys in blue if you use them during the day. See photo of me and Jay at the CCI Nats earlier this year
Clear covers look ok ish I wear them to protect all the new light units I put in no problems with wearing these real easy to put on as no fixings.
 
Do you mean the Tickford replica grille available from CCI like this one 
This is glass fibre and requires painting also you have to work out where to drill the holes to fix to headlight mounts. Original Ford Badges don't come with it and also don't fit the recess. I have had issues with it's fitment reference rubbing the bonnet and lights and have only persivered with it as I got it off E-Bay for £16 instead of £60ish from CCI. Some Capri owner's have complained of overheating problems using this grille. Mine runs an Essex V6 which are prone to overheating but I have not had any issues.
Hope this helps
Gazza
