Looking to get a gamecube again and looking for the best mods I could possibly do
Will be getting a gameboy player with it

Xeno>Region switchI'd highly recommend adding a region switch. It's pretty useful since a lot of games that are pretty expensive in America are far cheaper to import. I'd also look into some lists of good Japanese-only GC games.
How do I start the HDMI mod. I have the gamecube with the Digital portXeno>Region switch
A Xeno chip lets you do region free and play homebrew and backups. If you're feeling particularly adventurous an HDMI mod is amazing.
Also, Gameboy Interface homebrew is kinda bare bones but will deliver a better picture than the Gameboy player software and you pay less for the Gameboy player if it doesn't included the start-up disc.

Detailed videos or guides seem to be thin on the ground I'm sorry to say. I managed to do it but I've been modding consoles for over ten years now. if you're new it might not be the best project to start off with.How do I start the HDMI mod. I have the gamecube with the Digital port

Tearing up a Gamecube component cable? Where'd you hear that?Yeah I was looking on some info on it and a lot of it is like splicing the rare component cable up and turning it to an HDMI.
I'm not exactly a novice but nor am I a super expert.
Do you have any tips on how to do attempt this?
I really want my GBA player in outputed through HDMI lol. Can't deal with emulator lags and such
I already have a Xeno lined up to start the homebrew adventure too lol (I heard that the hombrew GBA player is better than the offical Nintendo one?)

The mod uses a pre-made FPGA board that taps into the existing digital pins and 5V power rail on a DOL-001 model Gamecube's Digital out. I desoldered the digital AV out port on mine to make room for the FPGA but most just lay the HDMI board on top of it and cut a small hole for the connector.
One other great mod would be the WiiKeyFusion mod to read games from SD card, using some nice adapters from http://www.badassconsoles.com/gamecube/
Once in Swiss (kind of IPL replacement), you're already like chipped and region-free.
the WKF is a whole in one driver replacement. No need for anything else, no USB Gecko stcking out. More polish setup. Well, in my opinion.
Have a look :
