Welcome and congrats!

Get your basic maintenance done and then look into the A-Spec lip kit

In addition I...

Brake pads.

There's a user on here who sells them in group buys, I don't remember his user name.
Do a google search for "group buy A SPEC kit acurazine"

User pitorican bought his from an oem vendor, even gave me the name of a store contact he used.
