Congratulations!
The first mod I would make would be to lose the M-B front plate! Then you can remove the mount and fill the holes with a pair of Bumper Plugs. (Since your paint is a dark color, you can use black plastic panel rivets temporarily. Get the ones with the glossy head, rather than the pebbled finish.)

MB plate is gone already, but I live in Texas and we must have front plates.

Actually, front plates are required but there is no penalty for not having one in TX. You can be pulled over, but there is nothing they can do. I have not had any problems with not having one, I say lose it Beautiful ride! Go to Boxtoberfest in Fredericksburg two weekends from now. I can't go this year but it is a blast! Like others have said, the exhaust, short shift, and definitely the clear side markers!
