Default Plans for my car!

Okay guys, I've figured out exactly what I'm doing with my car. First and foremost, I'm taking care of some body damage, and I'm going to check out a few parts dealers that I've found online. There's some place in GA that I've shot an email to and they are a specialty mustang place, so I'm confident they can help. Anyway, here's the plan:

-Wingless trunk to help give an classic look to my stang.
-Bullitt side scoops, again for simple and classic looks.
-Mach 1 Grille Delete.
-Mach 1 Chin spoiler.
-Shorty Antennae.
-GT rear bumper to give a more pronounced and natural feel to dual exhaust.
-Cobra style reverse induction hood in carbon fiber. (not doing yet)
-Carbon fiber mirror casings(to help the hood fit in a bit more).
-FR500 wheels, like these(http://www.stangmods.com/Black_FR500...x9_p/00307.htm) (not doing yet)

Unfortunately, aesthetics are all I can afford right now. The next step though, is a chip and rear differential upgrade. Then after I pay the car off, supercharger or turbocharger.

Will do. I'm strongly considering doing a concept drawing. I'll post it if I ever do it.

you intrested in buying my 8' shorty?!

and those i'd do in this order:

-Wingless trunk to help give an classic look to my stang. (almost no cost)
-(tommy's)Shorty Antennae....PM me if you're intrested.(save some $)
-Mach 1 Grille Delete.
-Mach 1 Chin spoiler.
-FR500 wheels
-GT rear bumper to give a more pronounced and natural feel to dual exhaust.
-Bullitt side scoops, again for simple and classic looks.
-Carbon fiber mirror casings(to help the hood fit in a bit more).
-Cobra style reverse induction hood in carbon fiber. (not doing yet)

Right now, I'm doing the hard part: Finding new front and rear bumpers that won't cost me an arm and a leg. That and I'm trying to find a new trunk that I can just trade out for mine. I'd rather not have to patch mine up. And uh, do you work for or own stangmods? I was already planning on getting the 2 peice grille delete, shorty antennae, and in time, that sequential turn light kit thingy (that makes it blink in a sequence).

lol no, i wish! (i work at a pharmacy)
Stangmods.com just treats me real well and they have best prices on alomst everything!

here is what i was planning on doing for my front bumper:



lol i bet no one has linked through a smiley before!!

and 8' is really only good if you live in or near a big city and around the signal towers.


edit: grille delete comes with it and so does chin spoiler and foglights...saves a bunch of $$ right there already.

You know what would finish this is a carbon fiber insert for the trunk lid between the tail lights.... that would be hot. I've heard of people painting them black but don't know what it would take to replace it with carbon fiber or what's available for this. It's got the latch assembly on it so maybe a surface stick on would be a better idea.
