What to mod next?

So I already have a few mods in the works or completed & I am trying to decide what to do next. At the moment I have a giken diff unit to install, pts exhaust, hps silicon coolant hoses, takeda intake, carbon driveshaft, volk gt7's, hood vents and cwest kit awaiting paint/install, custom aluminum radiator (finishing up the shroud), works bell paddle shift neo/momo jet2, led interior lighting, nokya fog and drl.
I currently daily my car so I don't want crazy stiff suspension but I am leaning towards doing new bushings/links/control arms/shocks n springs or coilovers. I'm debating on getting tokico hts/swift springs, Figs links/bushings/control arms and finish this setup with the silky swaybars. One other thing I've noticed is the transmission mount flexes a lot (I know this from the dss carbon ds test model install/test run) so does anyone have experience with the think design trans mount? The only other mod that comes to mind is headers which Im indecisive on ppe or sikky's.

It's best to get all of the parts installed first and go from there. You might like how it looks with the aesthetic parts, or you might not. It would just depend how you think your F should look once everything is installed and placed on the car.
You'll get favorable results from both PPE and Sikky. Both are active here on the community and have proven to provide excellent products to the IS F group.
I have yet to see anyone post up results by taking their IS F to get smog checked with exhaust and headers. But that's why we should keep the OEM parts to begin with. You just never know if and when you'll need them.

I even went with my supercharged and cammed vette that had no cats anywhere and it passed without issue, despite it stinking up the entire testing center from a lack of cats lol
