Okay,

So, I bought the Kit from FCP. That will essentially mean I will have replaced every component in the a/c system. The only remaining piece will be the short hose connecting the condenser to the drier. I figure it's short enough to be cleaned well enough by hand.

New Qusetion: Is it absolutely necessary to remove the front clip to replace the condenser? Or is it possible to lower out from the bottom?

Thanks everyone for the tips. When this whole thing concludes, I'll write up a short description of "what not to do" (what I did) and "what to do" (buy the a/c bypass kit from IPD for $35)
