Help me with my next Mod....
Well, as some of you might know, I recently picked up my first Corvette, a 2000 NBM Coupe. I want to add some personal touches, but am having a hard tim figuring out what to do first. I already ordered my exhaust, NXT Performance. I dont have alot of money to spend right now, as I am a 20yr college student, just looking for some small yet noticeable mods. I am already planning on buying the Vararam Intake when I sell the rims off my old Mustang, and I am planning on getting it tinted soon. What else can I do guys without breaking the bank?
Thanks Matt

If you're a do-it-yourself-er, paint the hood liner emblem, fuel rail covers, radiator cover, purge tank, windshield washer tank.
Interior lighting switch over to LED's is relatively cheap.

Holy Cr@p! If I'd been driving a vette when I was a 20yr old college student, instead of a 77 Cutlass, I'd have had alot more dates back then.

Edit: Just got the car like 2 weeks ago so I cant wait to back to school. 70% girls.

Here's your first mod:
Don't stand where your shadow is in the picture.
Seriously though, when you get the $$, chrome wheels will make blue paint come alive.
When I put chrome sawblades on the C4 I had many people ask me if I had the car repainted.

Painting your brake calipers, f/r, highlighting CORVETTE, DIY, reasonable and easy, maybe some slotted/dimpled rotors.
