I'd start with intake + exhaust as those are pretty easy to do and will handle the sound department. In terms of looks it'll be purely subjective what you want to do with it and what order you want to do it in but I'd suggest a new set of wheels and tires first before lowering it with springs/coilovers/air etc. I'm not a fan of the 2012 tail lights so I'd probably go for a 3IS style tail light right away.

Just drop, wheel and body kits. Don't wait your time and money on any mode I/H/E because the car will still be slow. Have you test drive and IS350 or ISF?
