Help Needed Maintenance and Mods

Hey guys, I got a 2018 Infiniti Q50s AWD about 3 weeks ago now and I have some questions. For starters my engine and turbos have 50k miles and my body and trans have 119k, because the turbos and engine blew and the shop put all new stuff in, common thing on these cars lol. Let’s start with maintenance. When I first got it i automatically put in 5w-30 full synthetic, tomorrow im installing the z1 anti jump belt and upgraded idler pulley both OEM, and i also plan to clean the throttle bodies tomorrow. I plan on also disconnecting the oil pressure solenoid, but waiting until after emissions because it will throw a code and my oil pressure is good right now. I also plan on doing NGK plugs and gapping them to 0.024” because i plan on getting a racebox tune. I want to also do a catch can and upgraded heat exchanger. Besides drain and fills on the diff, transfer case, and trans, what other maintenance should i be doing?

For mods, if i want to put on a spoiler, rear lip, side skirts, front lip, blacked out grille, LED infiniti logo, and mirror covers, will that look stupid with stock ride height and stock rims? I ain’t made of money i won’t be doing rims and lowering for a minute.
