Re: any ideas?
There is a lot you can do as far as visual mods. A lot of people swap gfx from gtz and z26 models. The two bumbers are a piece of cake the sides are a little harder but doable with some patience for a novice.
They have different headlights available that will fit with some modification. They also make clear sidemarkers that are pretty popular.
The shifter knob you can't really use any aftermarket ones. You can however swap ones from many other gm cars. I got one off of a cavalier. You have to find the clip that faces the front of the car. Pull that out and the knob will pull straight up.
Here is a pic of mine.

Oh. I didn't realize it was a manual. I just use the stock one on my GTZ.
Post some pics of the car.

For the 5-speed shift knob if you have access to a junkyard look for a mid 90's Pontiac Sunbird. It has a threaded shift knob that will accept most aftermarket shift knobs. It also has the added benefit of being a little shorter so it makes shifting a little easier.
