I would pay for someone to do the suspension and tint. The rest is easy and you can just follow the DIY's

Velocity spacers are great and affordable. 12mm will not rub on stock, even with a drop and make the car look so good. Make sure to get the extended lugs:

Thanks for taking the time to help MteK! Any mods under $100 and I am certainly in. I like that the velocity spacers are black even though they will be hidden behind my wheels. I watched a few videos on spacer installation and that is definitely something I can handle. I just hope to find a way to lift my car so I don't have to do one wheel at a time.

Also, I will definitely get tint/suspension done professionally.

Modding should be all about what suits your own tastes and what you plan on using the car for, not just a popularity contest. There are plenty of budget-friendly things you can do just as there are those that require deeper pockets. Do lots of research and don't be afraid to get your hands dirty and ask for help if needed. Most of all just enjoy the hell out of the car, and try hard to keep her clean.
Those shots by Neil Prasad are jaw dropping. Thank you for sharing. If I could ever afford it, I would buy your rims in an instant.

I definitely agree about modding for personal enjoyment, and although it is clearly not to everyone's taste, I like my spray paint mods! I'm excited about the angel eyes and spacers MteK has recommended. It's always nice to have something in the works.
