Default Need of opinion and experience for the sc300!!!

Whats up guys? Im brand new to Club Lexus and I need some advice to for my automatic 1997 diamond pearl Lexus Sc300 with only 59,000 miles. I love it and i cant wait to get parts for it!!!! Basically i want

-Intake/exhaust/ lots of performance-(Jic Magic exhaust)
-Rims and coilovers- (probally the is350 rims? not sure, I need suggestions)
-tints-
-soarer badges? too ricey?
-New bulbs-(suggestions needed)
-Big winn front lip
-seibon carbon fiber hood/trunk?

For starters i cant find an intake system. I want a cold air or a short ram but i cant seem to find one. Will a is300/gs300/supra NA intake fit on my 2jz? If so what brand etc?

Are most 2jzge parts interchangable? I dont have vvti. That started in 98'...

Ahh yeah, let me know what you think i should get!!! And show me your ride!!

Thanks

That's not what my sig name stands for but good guess non the less For the price you can't go wrong with these rims and they look good on DWP. Sitting on Supra MKIV tokico struts with eibach lowering springs. Another good choice since the combination is cheap on supraforums.com and the ride is nice and sporty for the car Oh and if you were thinking about exhaust here are my magnaflow 14829's if you ever wanted to know what they would look like on your ride.

I had some of the things on ur list on my 97 sc300
IS350 18s lowered on tokico hp/Espelir combo
BigWin front lip
Tints
I also had 6000k HID kit from ebay.
I ran 25mm hubcentric Ichiba spacers in the rear and 15mm in the front. I rolled in the rear inner lip of the quarterpanels. The wheels definitely needs spacers.
