Default installing cobra parts

I know this might pis* off some of the die-hard cobra owners but I am not trying to take anything away from the beautiful cobras. I have a 2002 silver mustang gt with 18" black saleen replica 5 spoke wheels and I am thinking about doing this:
2000 Cobra R hood
03-04 l/r side skirts
03-04 rear bumper
99-01 front bumper
01 bullitt side scoops
Mach 1 grille delete
Ford Racing side stripes
or:
Mach 1 hood
Mach 1 shaker
03-04 cobra l/r side skirts
03-04 cobra rear bumper or just keep my 02 GT rear bumper
keep my GT front bumper and add Mach 1 chin spoiler
Mach 1 grille delete
Ford racing side stripes
It will keep the GT emblems on it, I don't plan on misleading anyone.
Once the exterior is done then I plan on the interior. I want to save the engine for last. It will cost the most to do what I want. So my question is what do yall think? I am in the military and this is the best way I can do/afford it. I cant decide which one I want. I want the sinister look but not overwhelming look.

what engine do you plan on going with? if its a cobra engine you'll save money by just getting that year cobra and doing the cosmetics after

That is why the engine is going to be last besides the cost....I have looked at all of the different ones...terminator, mach 1, aluminator s/c, and I would love to get my hands on the 5.4L cobra R but that is prob a dream. Plus I dont want to cut up an actual cobra. I just want something that I can make my own w/o destroying a 99-01, or 03-04 Cobra.

if i was you i would do your car however the hell you like it, its yours so why not make it exactly the way want it and enjoy what you got?

i think what you listed cosmetics wise would look real good, i would also get some nice fr500 wheels or whatever you like

as for the interior some racing seats or 03/04 cobra seats and leave it at that (i mean i would do led lights in your gauges and maybe some whiteface gauges too but nothing too crazy)
