Your pistol grip is part of your frame bro - I don't believe you can just replace it.
About the best you would be able to do is get a hogue soft grip to put over the top of the plastic, or possibly get one of the laser sight back strap pieces if you are into that sort of thing.
As for upgrades, the first thing I would do is get that trigger tweaked out. I have a Sig and their factory trigger left something to be desired.
As for sights, if those are the factory night sights, I would leave them, they have something like a 10 year warranty. I got mine replaced after about 8 years and it cost me, maybe, $20 in shipping....
You are on your own on a holster. The only one I can think of is by Blackhawk tactical, it's a thigh holster and it has a place on the outside of the holster to clip the light on before you holster the pistol.

i have viewed the 1911's and i am just not a huge fan of how they are shaped or how they feel in my hands...i might get one just to say i have one but right now i am looking at the 44 mag Taurus mat stainless, the one with the 6 inch barrel, personally i think it looks VERY intimidating and i like the way it feels in my hand....does any one have any "DONT BUY THATGUN"'s to throw at me?

The 454 has more power when compared to a 44. You have to look at costs of running each revolver. Both rounds are expensive, but I believe the 454 is higher in price and can be harder to find.
Both Taurus revolvers have a decent reputation as far as quality goes and the customer service is decent now.
