Well purely for the back of the car you could go for the black lines kit which does look really good.

The only legal way to update the fronts significantly is to fit OEM xenon lamp assemblies, headlamp wash and auto-levelling.

Realistically you can fit premium bulbs (Silverstars etc.) but avoid the nasty, blue-tinted xenon wanabees 'cos they're shit and output less light.

+1 on fitting Silverstars etc... Fitting OEM HIDs is a nightmare job.
