Welcome to the madness! I would say that it boils down to two things, the style that you like and the skill factor you have with the tools to complete the task. That said, on mine I had lurked this site page by page, and every picture combining the different tricks and looks that are there.
I decided that I didn't care for the Rabbit style due to the beltline disappearing, but liked the styling of the Sebring style, and went that route, although there was extensive fabrication involved I achieved the look I was after without a stitch of fiberglass or resin.
It was a 3,1/2 year endeavor that payed off well.

There are some nice glass kits being made on here as well to look into.

I just got my Huffaker flares from Steven Lilves and they are nice parts.  It's a very daunting taks for me but it looks doable and the flares fit my car well.
