If you want my opinion, I think you should leave the poor car alone.

maybe drop it 2-3cm for that sporty look and if yor that fussy change the wheels.
Other than that V-dubs are best left alone.

Think of re-sale, who wants to buy a car with bits of plastic sticking out here there and everywhere

yep i will say i have to agree with ya there! all ive done with mine is a 40mm drop, and put some 17"s on as the standard suspension setup is a bit floaty, and mine had standard 15" gti alloys, it now sits better and the 17's fill the arches more other than that im leaving well alone! it all down to personal taste, some like some dont,

Oettinger kits are the only body mods I would consider other than OEM - Anni, R32 etc

Would leave well alone, you dont want a noddy car, like the man said invest your hard earned cash in some boo-lers and breakhorses.  

Plus couldn't be chewed with the 5-0.  or is that six (sorry scotland).

Knight - what suspension setup have you got?
