Ford Taurus Body Kits and Upgrades?

I purchased a 1997 Ford Taurus as my first car just over six months ago, and now that I'm in college I've made new friends - several who have "improved" the exteriors of their cars and whatnot. I became interested in possibly purchasing a body kit for my Taurus and in my searching I discovered a concept car known as the Ford Rage Taurus - a dream which did not come to fruition for Ford - here it is -

After discovering this picture, I researched several websites in an effort to find the parts that match the Rage Taurus parts - and I found a website known as Andy's Auto Sport.





Here is the Body Kit - I would remove the Mesh to give a more "Rage" look.

In addition to these external upgrades, I plan on replacing the Pedals, the HUD Faceplate, and adding cosmetic chrome exhaust intakes to the sides of the front fenders.





My question is - Is it worth it? I can afford it - but the car has 120K on it, and I am going to use it for the next 4 years. So, considering that I'm going to use it for 4 years is a change worth the $500? Thank You.|||LOL|||I think you need an extensive research in this one. Maybe you can find some good parts online or in your local shops for that one. If you want to make your vehicle last longer, try to aim for the good parts with good price and good quality for your money. Also, try to really get things straight in choosing all the necessary car parts.
