If you want to go performance mods first I would get an intake or exhaust.
If you want to go looks first I would get a wing or a front lip. Maybe rims, but I have the polished 17's and I really like them so I'm not going to replace them any time soon.

TRD race sway bars first. Your car will handle much better.
I'd drive it bone stock for a while. Learn the nuances of the car. Then you can get a baseline for the mods.
The sways should be the absolute first thing.
01 IJM w/LSD, 5Zigen exhaust, 5Zigen wheels, Toyo Proxes, TRD race sway bars, TRD adj. shocks (springs soon).

My 1st mods will be lowering the car for loks and handling. .then exhasut. .then sway bars.. then bodykit ..last would be engine mod... you wouldn't want to have a bodykit on at the start.. coz when mechanics add the other s mods.. ur car might get scratched on the kit for being low....
that's what happened to me....
but if you get ur kit later on.. will the colour spray of the kit be the same as ur car? my side skirts and rear bumper isn not perfect colour match with my car and the front kit (i got with dealer..)

Congrats dude. I know you'll love the car.
I agree, drive the car for awhile before you do any mods. Get a feel for the car first. You should never rush when modding your car.
