Looks good mate, I think you should add lower honeycombe grilles and a set of foglights to your shopping list :) a GTI splitter would really set the front end off. Bits & bobs like headlight protectors make a big difference to the front end too.

Its only about an inch maybe 1.5 inches bigger than the standard splitter.

Are you rolling on standard suspension at the moment? if so you wont have any clearance problems, they are like monster trucks on the standard shocks & springs

You will be fine then mate, check out Greg Perkin's build thread for some inspiration, he's on standard suspension but has a full GTI front end which looks really smart.

Yeah those headlight protectors are only cheap, got mine for eBay for £7 too
