however; it's ALWAYS best to do maintenance over mods!!!!
your car is 16 years old..THERE's always maintenance to do.

ALWAYS something you can repair or fix on these cars,.... definitely start with that before you start throwing money at aesthetics.
A pretty car that doesn't move isn't much of a car!

I've got a cracked windshield and a beat up front end.
and I'm sure my suspension bushings are beat to shit. and my car is only 12 years old.
I need to take care of those.

Yup, solid advice from Arkady.

If you plan to keep your car and fix it up then the first order of business is to take care of all maintenance needs. There will be plenty. The next order of business is to assess your transmission and see if you will need to be getting a new one at some point in the near future.

Once everything is fixed up I'd start with something like the OEM body kit. It looks nice.
