Given the milage, 95K, I would not consider any mods until you answer at least these questions:
1. Has the water pump been replaced?
2. Has the AOS been replaced?
3. Are ALL of the fluids fresh?
4. Has the coolant overflow tank (and cap) been replaced?
5. What is the condition of the front-end components?

It is not uncommon to spend up to $5k and the major "maintenance" cycle that can occur between 60-100K. Question is have these (and I expect more that I left off) items been addressed by the previous owner or are they lurking for you? If it were me I would hate to spend money on mods and then get hit with $5K of "unexpected" expenses. In summary, make sure you are working from a good foundation before adding to it.
