Default First major addition

I am new to the site and I just bought a 2012 wrangler. My plan is to wait till the warrenty runs out before I start doing major modifications to it such as lifts, tires, and other things that would void the warrenty. In the mean time I want to start doing small modifications such as bumpers, rock slides and other things such as that. I live coastal BC so not a lot of rock crawling and more trails and such to see. I am wondering if I can get some advice as to my build order of the jeep? I am cheap so these additions will be done over time I just want to get and idea of what I should start saving for. My final goal I think will be a couple inch lift with 35's or so not entirely sure.

So any advice as to products and purchase order would be appreciated. Thanks.

WelcomE aboard bro! You and me in the same boat I'm banned from warranty voiding mods on my 12 but all I'm planning on for now is rock rails flare fenders and my skid plates. Have fun with the build!
