Brand New Member!... with a couple questions

Other than a request in the local forum, this is my first thread on Camaro5!

I recently graduated from San Jose State University (Bay Area stand up) and my parents bought me my dream car. Since it was grad present, however... I got the very base 2011 LS1 with the only additional feature of bluetooth.

It's been nearly a month, and the only actual mod (if you even want to call it that) was that I bought four MS rims off of another camaro owner who got the RS package, because the black heritage rims were hurting my eyes.

As much as i appreciate my parents for buying me the Camaro, any upgrades are out of my pocket. I don't want to do anything too crazy, I just want to make it as close to looking like a RS as possible. From reading the posts on this website, it seems like the most cost efficient way of doing upgrades are purchasing pieces online and then having someone installing them or DIY. So, I need the best recommendations and online prices for a few things:

1) Fog Lights (and maybe Halos..?) - I NEED FOGS! I envy every Camaro on the road with fogs... it just looks right on the car. Almost necessary. The halos I'm not too sure about... maybe if the price is right.

2) Exhaust- I'm never been too much of a car person in the past. I don't know if I necessarily need a performance upgrade (312 HP seems like alot to me), but I at least want my car to have more of an aggressive sound (the stock exhaust borderlines a Prius)

3) Shift knobs- The stock LS shift knobs has a rubber feel. It's hard to find any other ones that fit the V6, since the V8's reverse is on the complete opposite side. Recommendations or sites?

Again, I love my car! Just want to get the upgrades that I didn't get the dealer initially.

And finally... Pictures!
