Right decided I'm going to get something for the car at the end of the month since I haven't really spent any money on it. Just undecided what to get.

Either

.Wind deflectors

.Bonnet Bra

.Rear mud flaps

Was looking at lowering springs from the Skoda shop but its Ł180 for only a 20mm drop.

Remap etc will be coming next year.

Dont they often damage paintwork though with rubbing? Your bumper and the remainder of the bonnet that is t protected will still get chipped.
Out of them I'd say wind deflectors unless you find a good set of springs. How often will you have your window open in winter so will be just for looks?

Relocate the fuel cap behind a rear light and make the light swivel out on tv cabinet hinges.

I think you should go for the bonnet bra, they look really cool.

Maybe save up for some new tyres too so you can get one of those fancy 888 badges everybody is honking about atm.

everyones being a lil harsh lol

in summary dont waste your small budget on little things that wont improve the look of your car like bra's and deflectors. Put this money aside and next time u have spare dosh put that with it and buy a nice lowering kit
