You should look into a belt of giant strength, at least. They come in different forms and variations(+2, +4, etc) so see which one is right for your price category.
Also look into a Monk's belt, or something. It gives you the AC(I assume you'll be unarmoured due to arc spell failure anyway, so might help) and unarmed damage of a 5th level monk, which might be worth it if the DM allows you to up your claw attack damage in this way(makes sense to me that better unarmed attack = better unarmed attack with claws on top :p). If not, take the Giant's strength belt instead.

Also, I know you'll get wings eventually, but you'll really enjoy a pair of Winged Boots before then. There's really nothing worse than not being able to reach flying opponents. They cost 16k and allow you to fly 3 times per day, for 5 minutes at a time.

Amulet of Health might also be neat, it's like the belt of giant's strength for con. Alternatively, take an amulet of natural armour to increase your natural armour bonus further.
These both have lesser and greater versions as well, just like the Giant's strength.

Hope that gets you started on possible choices, at least, I really don't have any ideas for very specific gear for that build.

Also worth considering:
Amulet of Mighty Fists

This amulet grants an enhancement bonus of +1 to +5 on attack and damage rolls with unarmed attacks and natural weapons.


Faint evocation; CL 5th; Craft Wondrous Item, greater magic fang, creator’s caster level must be at least three times the amulet’s bonus; Price 6,000 gp (+1), 24,000 gp (+2), 54,000 gp (+3), 96,000 gp (+4), 150,000 gp (+5).


 


Although they're a bit expensive, certainly get one of the two belts before you get this, there's always the amulet of health if need be.

all of the completes, except for scroundrel and psionic. as well as Player's handbook 2.


Other books may be allowed. the only two that are banned are the Tome of Battle and. Magic of Incarnum


Defintaley geting the cloak of displacement.  as since i have no armor I need me some miss chance, coupled with me using mirrior image extensively, should be pretty decent of an defense. I was thinking of getting an animated shield as well. though I cannot rmember if it has a number of rounds/day or if it is permantely animated.
