Question Any suggestions for a sleeker look?(95 Grand AM)

Heres my thing. Im 17. Senior in high school. We all now where my priorities are right now. I want my car to look fast. Its a 95 Grand Am SE(2 door). I know if I take the paneling off it will look better but I don't want the holes all over my car. I mean, im gonna do the whole wheels and tires(not no giant chrome rims that will look absolutley ridiculus or anything but just nice rims that look right with it and some new tires.), get the windows tinted, and it needs a new muffler too so Im gonna throw a nice one on there too. I really want to take the panelling of cause I think it would look so much nicer if it wasn't there. Any suggestions about the holes or any other ideas to make it look nicer?

***I am not the typical teenage ricer type. I know what looks ridiculus and I dont want my car to look like something its not, I just want it to look nicer then it does. Any suggestions are welcome, thanks for the time.

****I was thinking of adding a few more horses...Im getting a new head and its a high performance one and I was told that would add about 30 horses. I dont really think its even worth it though because it is just a Grand Am. Again, my expectations are unrealistic...I just want to be able to do a few ebrake slides and spin some tires here and there. Again, any suggestions are welcome, thanks for the time.

As far as "making it look fast" without being ricey, I would go with maybe some stuff from these places:

www.andysautosport.com
www.pfyc.com
www.grafxworks.com
www.customgrandam.coma

and as far as that head, there's no way in hell it would add 30 horsepower, sorry to let you down. Whoever said that, was most likely refferring to it being used on a "mildly modded engine". But on your stock engine it wouldn't bring nearly that. If you want more horsepower, start with the basics

CAI or WAI custom intake setup
Exhaust
Headers
Billeted Underdrive pulley

stuff like that. You gotta start basic, ported heads will hardly do jack without other mods to let the increased air into there.

If you are going to take off parts that are going to leave holes in the body you may want to start right there to make the car look good. have the holes filled and go for a new paint job. I know that can be pricey but the right paint color and wheels and rubber can make a ride look great just witting still. That's my two cents worth.
