Progress Thread The Little Pony That Could..

Well to start off I have a very rough white 2002 Mustang V6. This first post is just my hopes and aspirations and parts and such that I will eventually put in the car. Feel free to give me suggestions on better parts I could use. Thank you!

First is a little restoration:
Hood Cable Release(ordered), New Door Panels(ordered), New Steering Wheel( i just have a cover for now), new seats or reupholser (i just have covers for now) and a fresh coat of paint on some of the outer bits.

Second I'm going to work on the outside of the car to get it to my liking:
*Raxiom Smoke Headlights with the Halos http://www.americanmuscle.com/9904-led-angleeye-projectors-black.html
*LED Tail Lights http://www.americanmuscle.com/9904-black-led-taillights.html
*MMD Ducktail Spoiler http://www.americanmuscle.com/mmd-unpainted-ducktail-spoiler-9904.html
*Mach 1 Chin Spoiler http://www.americanmuscle.com/mach1-chin-spoiler-9904.html
*Mach 1 Grille Delete http://www.americanmuscle.com/mach1-grille-delete-lip-9904.html
*Coilovers and CC Plates http://www.americanmuscle.com/srperformance-coilover-7994.html
*XXR 521 Wheels F: 18x8.5 +25 (245/40) R:18x10 +25 (285/40) (this might change because i dont know anything about tire sizing so yeah haha)

Then after that (which shouldn't take long considering taxes are coming up) I will get to work on the engine:
*BBK CAI http://www.americanmuscle.com/bbk-cai-v6-46.html
*MAC Dual Exhaust http://www.americanmuscle.com/99-04-v6-mac-catback.html
*BBK Shorty Headers http://www.americanmuscle.com/bbk-shorty-headers-1996-2004gt.html
*Ford Racing Drive Shaft http://www.americanmuscle.com/frp-7995-28spline50l-aludriveshaft.html
*LSD http://www.americanmuscle.com/yukon-28spline-75-posi.html
*4.10 Gears http://www.americanmuscle.com/motive-410-9904v6.html
*Bama Tuner http://www.americanmuscle.com/x4-custom-tuner-9904v6.html

For now that is all I have planned because it's still just my daily. Maybe eventually I will get some beater Miata or something where I can support my love for imports and will take this car to another level and maybe do a 5.0 swap and add forced induction and what not, but for now I want to stay a little low key with the modding.

Thanks for reading if you've made it this far haha

Update: I got the door panel things installed, steering wheel hub/wheel is ordered and i got a new drivers seat from a junkyard for cheapo! But, after replacing the hood cable it still wont latch. It looks as if the whole thing is bent down and by the whole thing i mean the piece of metal that holds the whole latching mechanism. When i put it on it wants to stay straight up and down but as soon as i tighten the bolts it leans forwards so im guessing thats an issue so im going to try to just buy the oem part that that is. Also i discovered i need to replace the Headlight Nose holder thing, but its only 80 dollars on American Muscle so that should come quick. Hopefully with my tax return i should be able to buy all the external mods (minus coils and wheels/tires). So yeah thanks to anyone for reading all of this haha

it's kind of evident that it's leaning forward and i believe that it's the white hunk of metal that's holding it that is bent. This is the only issue that i can see

uhh i dont know why one of them is upside down sorry

Update again: Nothing really, except that I fixed the hood by bringing down the screw in stopper things so yeah, its not flush with the body but at least the hood is closed, Also got a little over 600 for my tax return so once that comes in I will hopefully buy some more parts :_)
