front ome/rear fj80 lift vs. spacer lift

so im very new to this and ive read a lot of threads on different lifts but im still unsure about what actually works/looks good/doesnt destroy my car. i managed to piece together a lift, from what i found in threads, consiting of:

front:
OME 9004 shocks
OME 881 coils w/ top plate spacer and studs

Rear:
OME 861 coils for fj80 (from what ive read this is as close to stock, .25 lift says manufacturer, that can be found with ease)
tokico trekmaster shocks for fj80

now, this in total would run me about $875. are there any other costs/parts id need for this? how high would the rear sit compared to the front? i want it to be about level but im not too ocd about it.

also, i have a 2000 limited 2wd and so im really just trying to get it off the ground because i like a taller ride, plus i want the looks. so, would it be more practical to just get the revtec 3" suspension lift that uses spacers? it will be under half the price which is always good, but how will the ride/look/durability match up?

thanks for helping a newbie!

Why would you pay for the 861's instead of just of getting used 80 springs?
