You can use fetchRemote or triggerLatentClientEvent to download files. You can then use fileWrite to save the files.

fetchRemote 
triggerLatentClientEvent 
fileWrite

thanks, that first example seems to be best for me, Im thinking setElementData to the player on login, as server event and then the clientside will check the players data, if it matches proceed to write the file.

Also, my other issue is getting that script to run once downloaded, because i cant specify it in the meta or it will download instantly anyway

loadstring  
  

The bad side of "loadstring" is that it can't be stopped easy , once the code is loaded you can't stop it unless you are using warpper's
