Right now I have 2007 Salomon ski boots that fit me perfectly well and aren't falling apart but i was wondering if new boots would help me at all.
Should I get new boots?

You have no reason to get new boots.
Even if your Salomons are ugly - I would be happy to wear the ugliest shit ever if I could find a better fit for my boots. It really is THE most important factor to being comfortable on the mountain.
Good fit is essential to good performance.
If you're competing in higher level freeride competitions or skiing lots of big mountain, charging lines and dropping cliffs, then you may always want to consider a stiffer boot, but until then, no need.

Why change them if they are perfect for you? It will be very difficult and probably expensive to find another boot which is better than your current one if it fits you perfectly.

Just throwing this out there, but I feel like if you are asking this question, your boots might not actually fit perfectly. Did you get fitted by a reputable fitter? If so, keep your boots, if not see a fitter to see what he thinks about the fit of your boot
