I'm a moron...
 
Silver Racing Stripes - $160
Rims - $350
Insturment Cluster (with MyColor, +2 gauges, and information center) - $300
Dash trim kit - $30
Billet Grills (top and bottom) - $100
Brackets for GT Takeoff exhaust conversion - $47
GT Takeoff Exhaust (Complete system, included H-Pipe and over axle pipes) - $100
Killer Keychain (Can't complete the car without that) - $10
Emblems - $40
Lasercut Mustang Door Sills - $30
Rear bumper turn/warning light (Clear) - $25
Front bumper turn/warning light (Clear) - $45
Avic-Z1 - $425 (hopefully)
Z2 upgrade hard drive - $125

Installation/labor of a select few items - $300

Estimated total for a complete car overhaul and upgrade - $2,087 (Down from $2,500 due to recent deal-making.)

How'd I do?

I call myself a moron for spending all this money. ^_^

NOW: Any recommendations? And don't mention anything in the engine compartment. Those will come next year.

Most of the items are on their way, a couple are in my room right now, and one is on the car. The upgrades will be compelted in about a month and a half. I'll post pics when the overhaul is done.

PICS COMING AFTER EVERYTHING IS INSTALLED! I'll keep you all posted, but this is hopefully going to be the biggest damn transformation you all have ever seen to a bone stock V6.

$350 for a set of wheels alone is worth a pat on the back (assuming they fit and won't break on you).
I think you're missing a custom license plate frame!!!

I was having trouble thinking of what to put on the license plate.

I wanted to put "67 TO 07" to show that I love 67s, but I didn't think many people would understand it. I was thinking of putting on rockers with the same tag line (just not abbreviated) but decided against rockers entirely.
