Hey! You're driving my twin! And that was also MY first mod! Hell, it almost looks like the same driveway!

Now get yourself a Window Valet like I did! Congratulations. You have officially taken the first step down the slipperly slope!

I agree you gotta start somewhere.

My first mod was the day I bought the car - Chrome valve stem caps.

Cool! That was my first exterior mod, too.

I added the following:
matching aluminum gas pedal
the window valet
euro tailights
Z06 fuel rail covers
a carbon fiber air bridge
blackwing filter
hood liner pad over battery box with "2000" embroidered on it
logo valve stem caps
Lloyds mats
lowered on stock bolts
Hooker cat-back

Wow, I have done a bunch!
