New Rockhopper w/ mods, Any suggestions? (Pics)

I bought the 05 Specialized Rockhopper this month. I like it so far but can already tell im going to have to get a FS within the next year. It's been pretty good on the rides i've done. The mod's i've done are below. I'm thinking of Disc brakes, but that would be a lot because I would need new wheels. What do you think my next mod should be, or am I done?

Mod's I have done:
*Crank Bros. Candy SL (Black) Pedals
*Thomson Setback Seatpost
*Easton Monkeylite CT2 Handlebar
*Bontrager longer Stem
*Lizard Skin Chain Guard
*Supergo Computer
*Water Bottle Cage
*Seat Bag with all the stuff inside
*2x 5w Vistalites for small night rides
