Default 3.8L performance

I just bought a 95 mustang with a 3.8L in it. i only spent $800 on the car but it runs smooth and drives fine. The driver door wont shut so its screwed shut, a body shop said it would be about 75 bucks to fix that, and the windshield needs repalced. Other than that everything seems fine. And it has 17' rims and michellin tires, but idk where to get centercaps for them. Neways i just wanted a list of products for the engine bay for power and dress
