Default Mods for my Z06?

I want to mods my 02 Z06 but dont want to overdo it. Def no cam or engine work. Honestly I just want to do some tasteful mods. I bought a 2002 Z06 mill. yellow 100% stock. I have added a Z06 emblem plate between the exhaust tips, and Z06 motorsport wheels (not on yet just waiting for time to mount the tires) I was considering tint and exhaust. I dont want to do to much because 1. Ive already wasted a ton of money on my SS, and 2. Im going to be builing a factory Five cobra in about 6 months with a 427 backed with a tremec 5 speed Any ideas or comments?

Why not just leave it stock? You could do the old lid and cat back setup. It sounds like your going to have your hands full with that Factory 5 Cobra build Very nice.

I just saw that you have BSM's, please take those off.

Body side moldings. 20lb fishing line will take those right off. It's all about personal preference though.
