I would add a tuner first. Pipes and an air cleaner necessitate the need for this due to excessively lean nature of the bike and how it is tuned from the factory. Adding an open air filter only leans the bike out more and causes it to run hotter. There are numerous choices.
Chrome lower forks,can be done whenever and wheels can be done whenever as well. For me it was always when the money had become available that I did these mods to my bike. No real rhyme or reason to the order for me.
As far as wheels, do your research is all I can say. There are a few brands available and pricing varies. I only sell certain brands due to my personal experience in dealing with varying companies.
Like I said above, the order is of no consequence aside from the tuner. I look forward to seeing your bike progress as it already has quite a bit.

Yeah you can do it yourself. It is easy. Just call Jaime at Fuel Moto and he will get you exactly what you need. I've always read that if you change both your exhaust and your breather that you need to get a tuner. I think that it's good advice. If you are going to ride a lot before you get a tuner, I would take the SE Heavy breather off and put the stock one back on until you get the tuner but I'm a little paranoid. As far as suspension goes, Progressive 422's are really good. I had them for a couple of years before switching to Shotgun Shock air ride. Either way you go the Deluxe is an awesome looking lowered bike.

Progressive suspension 422's. I have them and like them.
Chrome the front forks. The best mod I did so far.
Get chrome covers for the swing arm, they look good.
DNA makes a fat spoke, some people love them some dont. I think the issues are cleared up now. I personally want the Sinister billet daddys. I went with an 18" up front, but might go 21"
Oh yeah and get the soft brake tail light

Since you've already upgraded your intake and exhaust, go with the tuner first. As mentioned, Jamie at Fuel Moto can fix you up. If you want a tuner that will replace your stock ECM and not piggy-back it, you might look at the SE Super Tuner.
Chrome the front end and drop it front and rear, then do your wheels. You can always add more chrome.
