Recently got these online-
exhaust manifold 87-92 colt/mirage 1.5l $22.24 speedycarparts.com exhaust downpipe (piece with the flex section) 87-88 colt/mirage 1.5l $50.72 theautopartsshop.com front wheel bearing 85-92 colt/mirage (& various Hyundai well into 90's) $9.15 clearlyauto.com
and shipping was reasonable on all, too.
Manifold is China made, have used before and is good, put one in Colt before and this is for recent Mirage acquisition (apparently ALL of the original manifolds cracked in these cars, and these aftermarket ones are cast much more heavily in the middle where the problem was). Just check to see if O2 sensor will need a sealing washer added to keep tip off inner material, and shroud bolt holes may have to be cleaned out a bit. And comes with plugs for sensor hole (with washer you can transfer if needed) and AIR injection port in case you want to run without these (getting the AIR pipe out of the old header without damage is nearly impossible).
Downpipe is Canadian made (Bosal) nice quality, but has a nonstandard hanger extension that will not work directly with the stock hanger, and the heat shields have to be transferred from the old one of course (they are all like this). You can be quoted upwards of $200 for this in a parts store, so grab one if you think you will need it.
Wheel bearings are Chinese, but seem OK, and as you know generally these are getting kind of pricey lately (around $30 or so, as appear also on this site; note for some reason they only listed this one as "front inner" when outer are the same part) and you need two per side.
Interestingly, Rock Auto beats these sites on most other parts, but not these ones, though they sell a nice maniold kit with hardware and gaskets for around $60, and the Bosal pipe there is $57.
It pays to shop around !!
