Welcome to the forum lilaggressive.   You have the same year and color as I and you will feel like a kid in a candy shop.  Congrats on your purchase.  How you want to mod yours depends on preference.  Some go for interior improvements, others for performance improvements.  I would give serious consideration to the following:  DDMWorks Race Backbone and Probeam and Red "Solstice" Center Backup Light, JPM Leather Center Console, Windrestrictor, Beach Party Fuse Box Cover and MRZ - Performance Billet underhood Caps.  Those are the additions I have made to my 2007 Aggressive GXP

The sky is the limit.  Do what floats your boat!
