Default Mocking up brackets and stuff for fabrication?

So, my kit car project has got pretty deep of late...
I am needing to make or get made various brackets and mounts and stuff.

I can weld to a decent standard, however I don't have any access to a machine shop for fabricating brackets etc so I am a bit stuck...

Option one is to make some templates and take them to a machining shop for them to copy. if so can anyone advise what materials would be easiest to use?

Option 2 is to buy a sheet metal bender and cut and make my own, but this involves quite a lot of cost and hassle

Option 3 - Is there anyone on here near South Yorkshire that does this kind of thing for a living??

I cant take the car to a shop as there's so much to do it would bankrupt me and give them a breakdown...
