For your CAI go with a Roto-Fab CAI, Roto-Fab Windshield Washer Relocation Kit, Roto-Fab Radiator Cover, ADM Race Air Scoop, Do a Full ABL Install, add the HUD, and the Rearview mirror backup camera. Also when 2SSRS (Ofer) has the Mod done/figured out retrofit the MyLink2.

If you mean mods as in appearance...well that's up to you...looks are subjective.

But performance is not. If performance mods is what you are wanting then there is a nice list of mods that will make the car more fun to drive without breaking the bank.

In no particular order:

Exhaust (more for sound, not much for performance) $400 - 1,200
cold air intake $250 - $400 (performance and sound)
ported throttle body $150 after core refund (better throttle response and curing of lag in low rpms)
ported intake manifold $300 to $350
manifold insulator $150
tune $475
Headers $300 to $1,100

Also, you'll want a catch can for sure.

Do yourself a favor and do research in the V6 bolt ons section if its performance you are after.

I have to agree with the catch can, CAI, then exhaust.

Looks wise Wheels are always a biggie and can really change the look of your car. Lots of Spoilers and Hoods available now as well.
Intake Roto-Fab has a good one as well. Then an exhaust!!
Little accents you can always Hydrodip some pieces, this can help make your changes one of a kind!

Welcome HOME. Good Luck with your build. As others have pointed out, go with a theme and what you like. Do lots of reading.

I personally went with 3 categories, performance, handling, cosmetics. I have created a good balance of all 3 and my spread sheet of money spent proves this too.

You can check out my build thread for some ideas.

As for exhaust sound I am partial to mine.
