"worth it" ??????

It's your money... do you want fogs, a spoiler, and SE grills? You're the only one who can decide if it's "worth it."

Fogs are gonna cost you good money with brackets and all, spoiler you can buy on ebay.
Grill and handles can be probably purchased on one of those websites where they sell nissan parts. Also check out for sale on this forum, many things are being sold every day.
Good luck.

If it's worth it all depends on what kind of mods you want
...if you're strictly a cosmetic guy then spoiler , body colored handles, etc is the way to go (although I would personally get clear corners and red clears first)

...if you are into performance too, get a y-pipe and a drop first

...me, I have no $$$ to do anything...I just have pipe dreams :-)

whatever you do to your GXE, just remember it will still be a GXE

I think it'll save you a lot of hassle to just buy a SE, IMO there's way too much work and $$$ to convert, but if you do it as a "fun" project knock yourself out, not the most cost-efficient project but it's your car
