Congrats on the win......I would say a good mechanic.. (sorry I had to ) but if your not gonna get too crazy here are a few ideas...
Front and rear brush guards, hand guards, cargo box, back rest, K&N Filter, winch, skid plates..tires and wheels.

I would say tires and wheels, and front and rear brush guards, and a winch is a must, you don't know how much you need it until you don't have it.

I would not lift it. The ride goes to crap and stuff always breaks.

Yeah but it looks way more cool.
I wouldn't go over 2" myself, but that's just me and I don't know squat.
