You can get your engine cover painted and get a nice cold air intake. Also you can look into gettong some plasti dip and dipping your wheels black.( very cheap and easy to do)

Wow, thanks everyone! It looks like I have a lot to look into.

I just realized that on the 2013 models, the halo lights aren't on during the day while the knob is set to automatic... sad..

They're all stainless steel, made in America, and come with a lifetime warranty.

Your fog lights are your daytime running lights. The fog lights can not be otherwise turned on without after market alterations. On 2014 and 2015 RS models, the halos are the DRLs.

Congrats and welcome to C5!

Make your first mod one that will help your engine run cleaner and longer - Catch Can. Then you can do the pretty stuff.

I put my louder exhaust on the back makes my smiles per gallon go way up

A second job or winning the lottery???

Just kidding. Congratulations and welcome aboard. Take some time to look at what others have done and I'm sure you will have an endless list of ideas in no time.

I'm sure you can get a custom wiring harness from Gen5diy to allow your halos to be the DRL
