Just to keep this up to date...
Been working my ass off to get this ready for Fabulous Fords next weekend. Had to take the front sturts apart today. Hit a pothole the size of the grand canyon last week while on the freeway. Blew my strut bump stop to pieces. Inspected the whole thing, looks good, drives fine, so I'm good I guess.
New OEM trunk lid and painted trim piece. Ford never made a white OEM trim piece so I had to paint one.

The trim close up. Straight out the gun no wetsanding or polish.

Needed to get my trunk cleaned up. Wood cut to fit.

Batting spray glued onto the wood.

And the finished product. I still need to make side panels to match. But thats on hold for a while.

Then used the last of the fabric to recover the trunk lid carpet.

The recleared hood. Going to wet sand and polish it later this week.

And my new rare OEM side skirts. They're Ford Acc skirts an option from Ford that never really sold well.

My delivery guy forgot the hardware, so its getting dropped in the mail tomorrow. I'll have em mounted later this week. I think they really finish off the car.
