First off, I'm not savy in Brawl modding in any way, so if this idea is impossible or completely unreasonable please forgive me.
Project M is already great and is considered to be the best Smash game, it already has things to set it apart from it's Nintendo made brothers, but here's an idea that could set it apart even more: Battle Damage.
Squirtle can equip his glasses and have them be destroyed if he takes damage, so could it be possible to have battle damage on certain characters? Like say for instance Meta Knight. It would take some work but his base model could be him maskless(http://i.imgur.com/LySdP.png) but at the start of each match he loads with his mask article on, and after so match damage the mask could crack(http://www.mariowiki.com/images/d/da/MetaBeta.jpg) and then eventually break. Other instances could be Samus getting cracks on her visor or Captain Falcon getting cracks on his helmet.
In the files of Brawl you can find unused textures showing Battle Damage on Meta Knights mask, Captain Falcons Visor and Links Shield, so not only would this set PM apart further by giving it it's own little flair, but it'll bring back a lost battle concept that was originally going to be in Brawl.
*I did a little more research and it looks like the creator of this maskless Meta Knight(http://forums.kc-mm.com/Gallery/BrawlView.php?Number=29326) had the same idea to make his mask breakable.(http://forums.kc-mm.com/index.php?topic=57027.0) So would battle damage at least be possible for Meta Knight? I think he'd benefit most from battle damage and would give him some nice flair.
