Things to improve, eh? I highly recommend picking up a third key. If you have two working keys you can program in additional ones for free yourself. But if you lose a key and then try to replace it with only one the dealer has to program it for you and charge you a bunch of $$. Heated mirrors, possibly one of the best and most appreciated mods I've done. HIDs w/ a clear lens swap.
how do reprogram a 3 key for free then.

You have to have two working keys first, then get a third (or however many keys you want to add) key cut to your car
1)insert working key #1 in the ignition
2)Turn key to the ON position and wait for the immobilizer light (red car w/ key) to turn off
3)remove key #1 and within 10 seconds insert working key #2 and repeat step 2
4)Insert new key and within 10 seconds repeat step 2

You can continue repeating the process for more keys up to a total of eight keys.
