heres a good idea

 

you will need a very fine cutting knife

 

some sculpey

some epoxy glue

some thin white tape

and the following acrillic paints

 

dark red

 

metallic gold

 

orange

 

and grey

 

you could take the roof assembly which is built onto his left shoulder by a ball and socket joint and  using the white tape mask off the back half of the roof with the tape going over the  roof and lining up at the back edge of the side doors this will make it a lot easier to cut a straight line by hand.

 

using a fine filing knife you can slice the back half of the roof off leaving enough of the front half to meet flush with the side doors in vehicle mode then take the back half and cut it in half right down the middle top to bottom

 

both halves of the back roof piece are now ready to be used as additional armor over the lower legs

 

you can mold them right onto the lower legs using some sculpey and epoxy glue this way the back half of the car can act as additional armor for him in robot mode to beef him up some.

 

me id paint him up as g1 hotrod since the car hood halfes on his back could act as the wing assembly on his back

 

and besides side burn got the hot rod treatment color wise when he supercharged into his red orange and gold  colorscheme

 

as for the missile piece you could cut it in 2 and tweak the top half of it so he can hold it in his left hand to use as a shock baton with the other half storing away in the missile launcher to act as a drill missile after you remold the tip of that piece.

 

give him a g1 style color sceme glue a pair of sirens onto his left shoulder mounted riot shield which forms the front half of the car roof in vehicle mode, bash a set of tri barrol exaust pipes onto the side of his lower legs to act as nitro boosters in vehicle mode and you would be all set

 

this would totally rock homage wise.

 

if you can figure out how to bash energon rhodimus's head onto sideburns neck stalk all the more power to you man.
