I would like to swap the two 50w heaters for a single and change out for a better filter in the near future if anyone has any suggestions or pieces they'd like out of their spare parts box.

About the heaters, you should check this thread out:
http://www.canreef.com/vbulletin/sho...d.php?t=112426

If everything starts to look messy, find a used sump here and put all filtration/mechanical devices in it, under the tank in the cabinet.
You could start with just a small used tank, and put in some baffles.

Well, I do have a 10 gallon tank that is acting as my current extras bin. I would like to look at building a small stand/cabinet to store things in. that could be integrated into the whole thing I suppose. Would I have to drill holes in the current tank for piping?

You could drill your current tank, if it does not have starfire glass. Or you could go over the top.
I'm sure there are more ways, but I have not done this, so hopefully someone else will chime in.

Do you mean tempered glass?
