Looking for ideas for customizing a '86 Exciter

Bought a low hours '86 Exciter this past winter. I'm hooked. I've decided to keep this little boat for life. I'm considering a complete refurb, inside and out. I'll look at it more this winter, but I imagine it'll involve wet sanding and spraying new clear coat. Buffing it out last winter worked for a while, but it's faded again. The interior and carpet are OK, but to make it perfect, they need to be replaced.

Anyway, I'd like to start getting some ideas for the restoration. Does anyone have any pictures of a customized Exciter/Enchanter so I can get some ideas? I promise I won't copy your ride.

Thanks in advance for your ideas.

What does the boat look like now? Standard two colors or Deluxe with a stripe. I've painted some with a stripe along the deck trim and the hull trim and another along the bottom edge of the hull narrowing to a point at the nose. Check out alot of the boats in the showroom here to see what I mean.
 
It's a deluxe with a stripe. Dark blue/silver. I'll check out the showroom. I like the paint scheme, it just needs a little shine. What's involved with spraying on a new coat of clear? I want it to shine like one of those new bass boats.
 
L seat get rid of the passenger captain chair and intergrade cooler into driverside rear seat real easy will drain out stern of boat. Would be glad to get into more spcifics if you would like..
