I think you guys are missing the point completely.
Cosmetic mods are not there to make the car look faster than it is. It's done to give the car an appearance that the owner likes - his own, unique touch to his car.
Anyone who knows anything about cars will spot that is not a GTi just by the shape of it - so, these cosmetic mods are obviously not there to "trick" people into thinking it has more than a few ponies under the bonnet.
Having said that - I would remove the GTI badge, as it's not a GTI.
The rest - meh, if the guy likes it - screw what the rest of us thinks.
