    nice neat example! what is it a 2L or 1.8?
    mods... except motor - depends what you like

    i can suggest a big deck spoiler, coffee can exhaust, lots of tuner stickers if you like or something more subtle like your front euro lip spoiler!

    when getting your vr6 arches be aware:
    - it is 'orange peel' type plastic (thats what i call it - like your lip spoiler) - the textured kind that will need sanding and filling? has anyone done this and what have you used?
    - the arches are integral with the small bits of side trimming that are currently in front of the front door, and behind your rear door] and these are taller and different profile compared to your post 96 painted side trimmings (i'm talking about a 10-15mm height difference) - so it may not look so clean when you match it up. i have seen a colour coded arch on a golf and it looks 'fat' - beefs up the stance - looks nice

    although i went the other way - took off the arches and replaced with non-arch trim
