Get springs or coil-overs first. They make a huge diference in the TL's looks department. Then get a bodykit. I myself went the performance route first, then I went for looks and style. Trust me, if you want to stand out(in a good way, hehe), go for styling first. Intake, pulleys, spark plugs, exhaust, etc. help a heap with performance. I just hated the fact that before I got my drop and body kit etc I had a bunch of performance mods but my car still looked like every other plain-jane grocery haulin TL.
