Default Pre Cobb checklist / New used E61

Just picked up a E61 535xit
91000 Km / 56000 Miles

Anyone got recommendations for what to do a preemptive maintenance on a new used car

So far my list is
-oil change
-cabin air filter
-engine air filter
-new sparkplugs (still mulling this one)
-looks like i may need an intake blast - still hunting for a shop
-level my suspension


Anyone have anything else to add?
tran fluid change?
should i bother changing the panoramic seal now?

I have a Cobb on way so i want the engine solid before i remap it

Plugs should be changed for sure, unless you know they were done recently. You'll get misfires otherwise.
