S5 found in dump... what should i get off of it

I went in and talked to the guy that runs the place and hes going to let me take some parts off of it. Apparently when the car came in (90 GXL) it was fine, but the damn machine that lifts up the cars pretty much took out passenger side door and a lot of passenger side interior. The front and rear of the car is still good. I already have a list of stuff im going to get, just wondering if you guys could think of anything else.

Tail lights
rear bumper
hatch shocks
steering wheel shroud
steering whell
shift ****
door handles
head light covers and motors
front bumper

here is a pic of what im working with

In case you don't know... and in case you really don't need them... those s5 tail lights have been selling for well over $200 on ebay.

I'd also pull:

a) All of the interior trim you can manage
b) Power antenna and motor (looks like it might be broke if it's stuck in the up position)
c) Spoiler if it's not bent
d) Headlight/Wiper Switches
e) Warning Lights
f) Pull the motor if you want to tinker and experiment
g) Any aftermarket stuff under the hood (CAI, exhaust, etc)
h) ECU
i) Anything you particularly need for your own car : )

You can sell most of this stuff on here or ebay or just keep it for yourself... good find! I'd maul this thing. haha

from what I can see by looking into the hatch, the carpet looks fairly decent! You can get some $$ for decent black carpet!
