2000 Grand Prix GT Coupe WHAT TO DO

Long story short, I bought this car after my other one got ran over by a Silverado in August 2012. It has 153k now, but had 120k when I bought it. I have not done anything to the engine, so it's completely stock. I did a lot of visual things to it, and upgraded the sound system a lot. I first bought brand new Black 16 inch Vision rims for it, then tinted the taillights, bought darker headlamps, limo tinted the rear end and had 18% done on the sides, installed a new Sony head unit, hooked up 2 12" CVR's with a Hifonics Brutus 2000 watt amp. I am stumped on what to do to it next. It does need a new windshield, and maybe a new mirror piece on the driver side after it was knocked off by some D-bag in a parking lot.

New corners and fix alignment/fitment of the housings, front license plate filler, paint facias black.

Just some things that stand out to me. It's your car, do as you please.
 
The headlights and corner markers. The corners look like they have a ton of condensation. You can adjust them with a socket, there are little torx head adjusters on the bracket. They will fit much better once adjusted.
 


I would say SD lip, aftermarket hood, anything but the ws6, aftermarket spoiler ie SD F1 SLP, if you can find a white one maybe the Special Edition trunk lid and spoiler, roof rails and maybe some grill inserts.
 
Front bumper and right door damage is holding back the looks significantly. Damage just doesn't look good, get some correct color of white and touch up what you can, at least. While you're at it, install the left park lamp correctly or replace if the tab is broken, and be sure to get the license hole cover that says Pontiac on it, which belongs in the front bumper. Missing stuff also looks bad. I can dig the high contrast of white paint, black wheels. If you want a cost effective mod you can feel in the seat of the pants, put a 2.5" downpipe with hi-flow cat on that thing (I used an O2 emulator also, to avoid setting a trouble code).
 
Yeah that curb rash has been on their since I bought the car, when I was 16. Now I just recently turned 18, so I'm mainly saving up for college but all the small things I need to do I will try. Thanks for your opinions guys.
