Other than what you have done, I'd put on a stock rear bumper w/single exhaust. Faux dual exhaust on a 4-banger is retarded, and who knows you may actually pick up a bit of power going to single.
If it were me, I'd rip off all the SRT-4 "unique" body parts and put on panels from the base model Neon or the SXT or whatever.

Ditch the rims, though they do look better in black. But a nice set of aftermarket rims would set it off nicely. And thank goodness you got rid of the shopping cart handle. Aside from the rims, your set to just concentrate on seeing what else you can break in the drivetrain.

Oh, the Skittle looks 143% better without the wing. Of the changes you've made that's the one I like the best- especially in the rear-view photo, the car looks nice. It's a shame that it's so rare for someone to see that view.

It's a very mean sound, open o2 with the wastegate open, so unlike the tinny sohc d-series exhaust note it's not so much irritating and high pitched as it is ungodly loud and painful.
