I like em both
Welcome to Ecomodder. It's always nice to have another TDI on board. I think your choice comes down to personal preference or what you think looks the best. In my opinion the difference in bumpers will be hard to measure in mpg gains. The big gain will be if you can get a diesel to work in a Mk II chassis with the right gearing. That is going to be a job.
I have removed probably 100 lbs from my car by taking out the spare, back seat when not needed and swapping the muffler for a straight pipe. My aero mods so far weigh almost nothing, foam and coroplast and folded mirrors.
Edit- I see you know what you are in for with the engine swap
