Default Lift Kit?

Hi I'm in highschool and I have a two door JK. and I would like to know what package or brand, or model lift kit should I get for a 3 inch lift? I'm currently running 33's and I'm gonna get 35's once the wires are worn. But what brand/model/package should I get if I only do light trails such as dunes, forest runs, not epic hills, and I dont crawl rocks at all but later on will be good with the 35's?
Will my JK look alright with the 33's for now till I can get the 35's?
Whats a good specific package, model, or brand I should get?

Thank You very much for the help.

I have a 4 door that i started with a 2.5" budget boost spacer kit with shock extensions and when I added my winch and bumper I ended up buying new front coils that had a heavier rate on the by OME from northridge4x4 I think. They are in washington state and I am running 35" nitto muds on a 17x9 with 4.5 backspacing. The rear rubs on the fender flares if you flex it but I am planning on doing a fender chop. I have some pics posted on another thread if you want to see them. You may could get some 4 door springs and put them on your 2 door and get some lift cheaper than a lift kit. I have seen people on here do that.

I went with the 3 inch black diamond lift (got 3.5 inches), the price was great, I have used there lifts on my cj, yj and tj with no problems.
