I would actually recommend going after 4 pot Wilwood setup. I recently put it on my car and I am in a fairly similar situation. It gives a lot more stopping power, but also isnt a hardcore brake system that costs mega $. I got a deal on mine and only paid 750 for calipers, drilled rotors, pads, SS lines shipped to my door.... brand new

Cost efficient way would be new brake pads and stainless steel brake lines IMO. If you want to also go for a new look you could do drilled an slotted rotors but painting/new caliper covers would be waste cause it might look cheap.
