Welcome to AZ!

For performance mods I'd add a cold air intake, J-pipe, aftermarket exhaust to name a few.

Congrats on your new ride. The TL is one sweet car for the money.

Those are perfect places to start, along with suspension mods.

Welcome and congrats on getting a TL!

Congrats on the new TL and welcome to the forums. If you aren't careful, you can quickly go broke hanging round here picking up ideas on things you can do to your car. However, you did ask sooooo - my suggestions for first items: window tint and an aftermarket rear-sway bar (makes a HUGE difference in the handling of the car). After that, the sky's the limit around here (I know...I had absolutely no intentions of changing my car and now it's at the dealer today having some new goodies installed. )

Tint for sure then a CAI. There are several levels of exhaust depending on how loud you are willing to go just search for the thread on it.

As stated, there are a ton of things you can do just really depends on what your style is.

Good luck, and welcome to the forum.
