Just me, i would leave off the brushguard and the headers...
brushguards I'm not a fan of, and headers IMO aren't going to do much w/o other mods (supercharger, etc)..not worth the price anyway.
and I would get an sctlivewire instead of a tuner and scanguage.
and DEFINETLY do HIDS, and scratch the KC lights, just get HID's with hi/lows...you won't need the KC's. All mine have broken (the offroad lights) and IMO dno't look that great

And on the other things i will surely look into it. I have heard headers can help alot with all the other upgrades??
Minus the s/c

Just don't do anything you might regret. Speaking from experience. Sometimes it's LESS that makes a vehicle more. I odn't like all the brush guards and window guards and running boards, etc. I like tasteful mods (not saying yours aren't), but I learned that money is best spent on suspension and wheels/tires. I ended up taking my engine mods off because they weren't lasting as long, for example my pullies started to squeak and howl at idle, even after a new belt they wouldn't stop. I am stock now and no noise what so ever. Same with efan.
For my next truck, it's lift/tires/wheels, bed (maybe linex) toolbox, exhaust intake programmer...thats it!

Good luck getting that passed on Safety. Utah is retardedly strict on tint. Mine on the Jeep measured at 37% and the limit he said was 42%. 37% is so light its hard to tell its even tinted. Freaking Utah.
