Finally Got My C5
Just got my first Corvette it's 2003. Just had it delivered this week.
It was 48 F here today, cleaned it up and took it for a ride, can't wait for continuous good weather.
I realize this questions has many answers, but what are the must have accessories for the C5. I am leaning toward protection items first. I have a cover and top bag on order and have a battery tender any other. I am now thinking of the coupe apron.
Question?
How do I post pictures of it in the forum?

...and congrats on the new ride! 
The Help Forum here is the place to go for all your general Forum usage and "how to" questions. You should find a number of threads there to include a sticky thread toward the top of the Help Forum Index on posting pictures. Should you need additional assistance after reviewing these, post in the Help Forum and someone should be along to help you.
Also, here's some additional info you may find helpful. The Forums Index lists all the forums here and shows the topics that are appropriate for discussion and posting in each of the forums. An easy way to find the Forum Index is to click on the red C5 convertible at the very top left of this page.
Hope this helps and good luck with the pics!

Congrats! Welcome! etc 
My wife said that first mod on any C5 should be a chrome "exhaust enhancement plate" She bought 1 for our C5 from http://www.corvettemuseum.com/cgi-bin/store/shop.cgi?ACTION=ENTER&thispage=new.html& ORDER_ID=!ORDERID!
All 6 speeds could use a better than factory shifter & column lock by-pass. Beyond that whatever make you smile.

Congrats on the new Vette and you lucked out in a big way.
By that I mean that surely you realize that 2003, the 50th Anniversary of the model, is also widely regarded in a recent survey of 2003 Corvette owners as being the best model year EVER for the Corvette.
