Default New to the forum, got a 2000 project s2k

Hello, just picked up a 2000 s2k last Sunday (my birthday). It's got a bunch of miles on it 126k, top is messed up pretty bad (just ordered a new soft top) it's got a huge dent in the driver side front fender, check engine light is on, rear passenger tail light is busted, plus it's covered in hail damage. The good thing is I traded it for a yamaha r6 08. It came to me pretty cheap. Last week I picked up same color doors and front fenders and finished putting them on Saturday. Still need a silverstone metallic hood and passenger side rear tail light, and I just got an offer for a trunk lid. Lastly I am planning for a body shop to take care of the two rear side fenders and the strip between trunk and soft top due to hail damage. I also just changed 02 sensor and about to do a tune up and change tranny fluid. I will post progress pics of everything soon.

I am currently in Albuquerque NM, but I am stationed in Destin Florida where I will be in August.
Original picture of the car

replacing driver side door and front fender

Replacing passenger side

You can see from the last pic, the rear fenders need to be pulled out due to hail, cant replace those unless you cut them off.

Next is top, trunk, passenger side tail light.
