What sort of budget should one set for a decent aftermarket setup? Not looking for anything crazy just reasonably better then stock.

Well - I've got a really good connection on a car that has everything but the L7 and the price is perfect...except I will want to upgrade the stereo.
Keeping the interior as stock looking as possible...what is a good plan for upgrading?
Replace all stock speakers (base system has 10, I believe)...how/where do you add to come up with the 13 that are in the L7? Is this nothing more than converting a "1-way" speaker into a "2-way" speaker by having a discrete tweeter in addition to the primary cone?
Seems like the L7 also has a center front channel...the physical space must be there...can I simply add that speaker, too?
Separate the underseat subwoofers from the rest and provide dicrete amp for them.
Maybe also add a subwoofer enclosure in the trunk...I don't need that much bass, but I do like it clean and tight.
Install amp for the other speakers (mid-bass through treble).
What about the DSP sound processing the L7 does? Can I duplicate that with an aftermarket add on?
Thanks!
John
P.S. I'm very much looking forward to getting back into a BMW...I downsized a couple years ago to a Ford Ege for financial reasons...man I hate driving that thing...but it has been very reliable.
