Number two would be sporty tyres, like Michelin Sport Cup 2. Number three would be a set of coilovers to stiffen the suspension up.
If you don't have sport suspension on the car, you may want to add coilovers first, along with M-Sport swaybars.
Bilstein B4 is not really a performance upgrade, but a product with pretty much the same characteristics as the stock dampers. If the stock bushings are worn out, it would make sense to replace them, otherwise I think they are pretty good. I don't think a brace would be needed either.

From what I have seen, the issue with using the M4 LCA + TS and the alternative SuperPro
ALOY0030K LCA +
SPF4306K is that both move the front wheels back from the central position in the arch. Also the use of (say) 8.5" flow formed wheels with (say) 245/35 (40 ET) tyres might be inhibited by rubbing on the struts.
I suggest examining the use of
Vorshlag or
Millway Camber plates as 1 or 2 degrees extra negative camber would save the outer edge of front tyres and give more even wear.
