Stock pedals are NOT plastic, they're aluminium alloy.
I would look more towards some decent rims; Halo S.A.S. | Spank Subrosa/Stiffy | Sun Ringle EQ31 | Sun Ringle Double Track.
Maybe new handlebars/forks. Maybe you should ride the bike a few days first, find out what you don't like the feel of and change it.
