Default should i start over on body work

i know its not a honda, but its my daily driver, i want to know if you guys think i should do some insane body work to this car (t-top, mold kit, mr2 side vents, s15 headlight conversion, ect..) because it is a slow show car, but right now it is just a slow car that looks kinda good...

looks decent as it is now.. if its a slow car it defintly needs some big rims cause those stock ones totally ruin it and get some suspension.. my friends talon that had around $10,000 of body work was just sandwiched by some dumb ******* kid racing on the street that rear ended him at 100mph+

If it's your daily driver i wouldn't go too crazy, don't forget the down time involved with body work and paint.

if this is a daily driver car, i wouldnt spend all that money on the body due to all the car thefts goin on. ur car is already hot to the eyes of thieves.

it is my daily driver, but since i am doing the body work it would only take a weekend of hard work... and there doesnt seem to be much (if any) of a theft problem in Boise... what WILD things would you guys suggest i do
