You could go with a shifter. I think you've about got everything covered that's less than $500.

I hope my son spends that kind of money on me one of these days.

If you're thinking suspension upgrades, how about the Z06 stabalizer bar kit and Sachs shocks. They are on special now and many have upgrade to these.
