Help the new guy

I recently purchased a silver 06 ss/sc... I was wondering what are some cool appearance changes I can make that are relatively inexpensive. I saw a lot of people changed the chevy badge color and maybe the SS logo color? Any input is really appreciated. College student and really just want to make some personal changes to make it MINE!

THANKS EVERYONE!

I did not, I only own the cobalt. I was looking at the rear brake lights as well. just the same style excepted smoked (i think LED is not worth the money)

the evo mod is what he has in the picture lol. if u look at the mitsubishi evo's they have that center section painted black, hence why its called the "evo mod" for us cobalt guys. looks amazing on them, but the best on white cobalts hands down.

Does anyone here have Depo Gen 4 headlights? Anyone have input. Ik a lot of people think retrofitting is best but i just dont have the money for it. Depos would prob be better than having a cracked lense.
