Default HELP ME mod my car.

ok, finally will be able to add some basic bolt on mods on my car, but i need help.
I looked at the sos web page and they have crazy stuff at crazier price. I don't think i really
need the spoon ECU upgrade and LSDs.

bUT This is what i came up with so far.
1. I want exhaust: HKS looks mean and sounds good.
2. Intake: Comptech, I like this the best due to CF (ok i am dumb and i have a stupid question. If i get the cold air intake do I still need the induction?) please advise.
3. voodoo spun alum. shift knob
4. rick's S badge
5. Rick's 7/8 windscreen
6. Rick's clearside marker

now the questions about these.
7. are headers really worth the money and installation
8. coilovers? or should i just go with springs. i see quiet a lot of people have lowered their car without changing shocks. I know it will wear the shocks faster but is it rated to handle the dampening of the new spring rating (does that question even make sense.
9. wheels (between volk te37s, OZ super, SSR GT3) which one do u suggest and what size?
10. CF hood, hmm. this one is hard to justify.

bonus
11. amuse front spoiler (I will get this soon)
12. rear oem spoiler (I will get this soon)
13. x brace (any one selling used one? i want it, PM me) any suggestion on which one is good?

thanks guys.

2. induction? Comptech CAI should work fine out of the box with nothing added. not sure what you mean by induction. perhaps a throttle body? Or more along the lines of a supercharger (which would be a different air box)

7. header - (only one, not two =)) - its subjective, but unless you are spending the big bucks on a spoon or mugen, it will make little difference, and shave only 10 lbs off the weight of the stocker unit.

8. if you want the look, go with springs. or else.. coilovers are overkill if you do not know how to tune them correctly or use them on the track (that's just my take).
