driver training day and learn how to drive it properly or a track day and push it to the limits

then you will know what you and the car can do

after mess about with parts, as you may find its not needed and you are spending money for nothing

I'd detango the front lights, get a splitter and some mudflaps. All done for under £100.
I'd save performance mods until after you've got used to/bored of your new car as it is first.
