SRK forums might just be as good as it gets.

few things that I need to know:

Is it the SE or TE stick
what are you wanting to do?

I've had more experience with working with arcade panels and sticks than I'd like to recall

@LunarAura: thanks for the info...

@TougaKiryuu: I have the Collector's Edition(as it says on the box). I want to get new stick and buttons for it, and if possible a faceplate cause I got the SFIV stick only cause they didn't have the EX Pro 3 stick

alright.

For buttons, you wanna get the Sanwa OBSF-30s, all you'll have to do is some snap out, snap in work. Pretty easy, and they come in like 800 colors. The cables themselves are quick disconnects so no solder needed!!

For the stick, I'd say get a Sanwa JLF-TP-8YT-SK. Also make sure to get a different plate depending on how you like the feel of your stick (it comes with a square gate, circle gate will make it feel like a cab, and octagon will let you feel the quarter circles out). Also, most sticks don't ship with a ball, so you'll need one of those. This stick uses the same mounting cable so once again, no solder needed.

As far as the faceplate goes, you don't need to replace it, there's a blank template on SRK, just download it, take the art you want on it, slap it on the template, and take it to kinkos. Just make sure you take the screws off before ya stick it on ;D
