    I have been looking into all sorts of visual mods lately and between headlights, taillights, wheels, etc. it is a bit overwhelming. This is my first car and want to know what others would do because I cannot make up my own mind . Thanks.

    Spoiler and hood already look awesome. I'd say get another set of wheels, lower it, tint the windows, debadge it and get overlays for the rear Pontiac. Other than that, you have an awesome car bud.

    since i have a daytona in that color, i'd say get aluminum grills for hood, lower fascias, and the grills. Get a front plate filler with white inlays and also white inlays in the rear. Roof rails, ditch those color rims. Exhaust tips. Tints. Lower. Thats all i can think of visually.

    TINT!!!

    Different wheels, preferably gunmetal.

    Roof rails, Tinted tails, lower, retrofit black headlights, and either debadge, or get color matched overlays for the side badges.

    Car already looks good (minus the wheels, IMO they look terrible) Love the color, and love the hood.

    LED tails. Red or smoked

    Debadge the trunk lid.

    Rear inlays.

    Exhaust tips.

    Painted calipers.

    SD air dam. If it's in the budget

    Roof rails. If it's in the budget

    I am definitely going with window tint and smoked led tails. How difficult is it to retrofit headlights? I have no idea about wheels now, but I will decide. I cannot lower the car because I can barely clear the driveway as it is. I love the look of roof rails but they are pretty expensive. Exhaust tips I will do eventually. I will also do the aluminum grills for hood, grill and fascias. What are inlays/ overlays?

    I got you now, thanks. I looked into retrofitting and it seems like too much of a task for me. What is the next best for better looks/output from headlights?
