Get some projectors with a HID kit. You could lower it as well.

id say no extreme painting like body painting. Definitely debadge it. lower it. Projectors. tint. rims. (stock rubber is fine i think). throw a catback exhaust (IMO an appearance mod). a new deck is always nice. with that i think your around ~1600-1800

Debadge or paint bowties, definitely lower it, get some projectors and HID's, maybe tint tails, and if you can then get some rims.

You would have to unbolt it from the front grille, but your going to have 4 small holes. Go to 24designs.net for more bowtie ideas.
