GX 460 Off Road Modifications- Need help finding resources

I am going to be purchasing a GX 460, moving from an FJ Cruiser. Getting older and need more comfort, but also need off road capabilities. It is fairly easy to find equipment for the GX 470, but more challenging for the 460. I am interested in:

Front and rear bumpers
Winch
Roof rack
ladder (I like the Gobi and saw someone on the forum mention they planned on getting a Gobi for their 460, but it seems they only have them for 470)
Sliders (have found some resources on here for sliders)
Fender flares (this is big one and have not been able to find anything other than a 460 in Edmonton Canada with them at a dealership)

Any help would be greatly appreciated, including fab shops that will do custom work.

Thanks for the help in advance!

Jumping on here, too, as I just picked up a 2013 GX 460 Premium and will be making minor changes. Would love to get this groups suggestions for:

- Favorite rubber interior mats?
- Favorite tires for moderate offroading with a stock lift?

I don’t like the raised lip on the husky cargo liner. The OEM rubber mats don’t provide as much coverage/protection.

K02 or some 4runners have been running falken wildpeak at3 or cooper discoverer at3
