I have a header panel you can have for your car. It needs one of the mounting tabs fixed though

What size are they width wise? I would think about tring to find some  8" for the front. That way they will tuck under the fender lips. As overdone Cobras are and everything I still like how clean they look on everything. 5 lugs look cleaner than 4 but they still look good

I dont have the bumper from that car butI might be able to get ahold of a TC cover. IIRC the bottom "ribs" are broke but you cant tell unless you roll under the car.

Thinking of moving the cobra Rs up front and getting some GT500s for the back of it. i got 5 2001 GT rims to sell so then i can get nicer wheels to go with it and buy a full set later on.
