Revamping a bicycle

I got a bicycle for my soon to be 4 year old on Freecycle. It's a good bike but it could look better. It's got some rusty spots (which I figure I better hit with some rustoleom paint) but I'd like for it to look, well, a little cooler. He has a red, "Cars" helmet so it might be nice to coordinate the two. Any ideas? Thanks.

I would go to a bike shop and see what they have. DD was very impressed with the addition of a bell to her bike and we have since bought them as birthday presents for other little ones. They always seem to be a hit.

I was going to suggest taking it to a bike shop as well. We did that with my bike that I got at a thrift store in good condition, but ugly as hell and needing some minor repairs. Even if they can't fix it up they can probably recommend someone who could.
