here are some popular additions to the car that you could consider:

- front chin spoiler (oem)
- rear spoiler (oem)
- spoon (or copy) snorkle
- k&n air filter
- muz mats
- upgraded door speakers
- upgraded head-unit

these bits will seriously enhance what is already a fine car - but i don;t need to tell you that as you've gone and bought one

Ok.....

For performance look to change:
New Manifold (Ricks S2k or Mugen)
New exhaust (Amuse or something more sensible)
Decat (T1-R or Megan Racing)
Air intake (Mugen, I'm saving running stock with K&N at the moment)
Suspension (Nitrons being the favoured option)
Brake fluid (Motul RBF600)
Pads
Hoses (Goodridge)


Other options include:
New HU
Muz Mats
Spoilers etc.....
Wheels (bit of a nightmare to get correct offset etc)

Actually fcuk that and get it into TDI to be supercharged
4k doesn't get a lot more performance in real terms.
