The next change that makes a difference in driving, if it is legal in your state, is replacing the exhaust header. You can do that without tune starting from ~$700 as well.

And, you can do the followings for around/under $200 if you do yourself. These make a difference for your reliability and/or performance:
Mishimoto oil catch can
replace the brake pads with stoptechs
install OEM STI oil cooler
replace brake fluid

I don't care enough about anything else to recommend before a supercharger upgrade which starts at $5000.

Catbacks, cold air intakes, K&N air filters, etc. are just fancy mods that actually don't make much difference in performance.

Aesthetic mods are personal and can be cheap or expensive. You can do anything you want.

Be careful with too many mods since their cost can be higher with reduced resale value of your car.

Since this thread apparently started about stickers I think you are way out of the league!
