I would have to say the best is the widebody conversion.

I've done a few things, but for the money - I really like the body colored (precision red) door handles.

Those do look nice - for $100 bucks the z06 style body-colored spoiler might be a close second.

The bigger tips and the improved exhaust note are a vast improvement over stock.

Looks - Z51 emblem - just that little bit of chrome on the side of my black car makes all the difference in the world. GM missed the mark by not doing it.

Performance - MagnaFlow Exhaust System. Now it sounds like a high performance sportscar.

Z06 spoiler and soon painted calipers. I wouldn't touch the exterior past that. That is, unless I had the dough for a full Z06 body and carbon fiber parts.

Z06 wheels made the biggest difference.
