welcome to the forum matty...sounds a nice list of mods your doing already..

Hello and welcome Matty. I have a TR GTi too. Great choice 
Personally, I would leave the Monza II as they are, look much better and if you ever want to sell they will be worth more as originals.

Carbonio intakes are useless, save your money. They just look pretty.
Go for a CAI kit like ITG, Evoms or Forge Twintake (I have one of these). Will give you much bugger gains and sound better too.

Rather than searching for an ED30 splitter (which is almost impossible to find second hand) why not buy a Votex front lip from VW direct. Looks slightly better and is a much less common.

Of course, this is all just my opinion. You have no obligation to take heed 

Apart from that, enjoy your car and test out the launch control

Offcourse it's a matter of opinion, but I decided to get an ed30 splitter from vw (£240) after trawling eBay and the like for about 3 months! It's alot of money but I think it finishes off the front end nicely and looks better than a votex one!
